Lent 2010

The season of Lent is well under way in our four Church Communities. Ash Wednesday (a national holiday here in Jamaica) saw large crowds at all Churches as our people were marked with the sign of the cross in ashes and challenged to turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel. The Community decided to collect food at Sunday Mass during the season and deliver the food to Mt. Tabor, a home for abandoned physically challenged children run by the Missionaries of The Poor. A Day of Retreat is also scheduled for the Community on March 20.
