“Humanity must urgently get down on its knees and beg God for help. Otherwise we are heading straight into disaster and will experience the most dreadful days. Humanity is in terrible danger at the present time. Without God’s direct intervention, we cannot be spared. We are driven to ruin, in a spiraling race to the abyss.”
Father John Gregory of the Trinity
Lent starts on March 2, 2022.
According to the testimony of the most ancient Fathers of the Church, Lent is of apostolic institution. It was established to commemorate the fasting of Jesus in the desert, and to prepare us in holiness for the great feast of Easter. During this time of penance, it is fitting that those who have the strength to fast do so. It would also be appropriate to impose some other sacrifices such as: abstaining from meat, sweets and tobacco, not wasting time on social networks, on the internet, depriving oneself of shows, music, according to the generosity of one’s heart.
An urgent call from Jesus our Saviour, who loves us with an Infinite Love and begs for our love.
