Bishop John Bonnici offers this week’s Friday Lenten Reflection on how to live Lent as a time of preparation.
Bishop Bonnici, the Episcopal Vicar for Westchester and Rockland Counties, says that during Lent we accompany Jesus to Jerusalem and learn so much along the way, and he offers concrete things we can do to prepare for Holy Week and Easter.
This is the third in our series of spiritual reflections for Lent offered by the bishops of the Archdiocese. The reflections are published each Friday during Lent.
Sr. Mechtilde Doherty, OP, spent 71 years as a Dominican Sister of Blauvelt, devoting more than four decades to teaching second grade and CCD before serving her convent community as housekeeping supervisor until she entered eternal life at 89.
