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.
