Second Sunday of Lent

Last updated on: February 25, 2018 at 8:00 am By John Paul Gaston

Hi everyone, it seems like I like to take a break every once in a while, but I am hoping that my schedule starts to clear up some more so that I can get back to writing! This week is the Second Sunday of Lent. I pray that your Lenten penances are going well, for mine is a struggle (I gave up cigarettes because I am a smoker). But I think that my struggle must be nothing in comparison to... Read more
