Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
I used to panic when Lent would come around worried that I wasn’t “doing” enough. Did I have enough spiritual reading to finish? Did I have enough sacrifices that I was going to make? Did I have a plan to get the whole family involved and make sure they were “doing” enough? I don’t believe that “doing” is really what Lent is all about. It has taken a few years for me to fall into the idea of Lent being a time of “being.” I have to tell myself that what Jesus desires most is for me to simply be with Him.

A strong and clear sense of the Presence of God came over us as thousands of kids from the Archdiocese of Los Angeles were gathered for the Holy Eucharist last Thursday in Anaheim California, at their annual Youth Day.
