St. Oscar Romero, a twentieth-century martyr, lived his life bringing God’s love to the people of El Salvador, an “instrument” of God among the people of that nation. He stood up to extremists in his country, and tragically was shot and killed while saying Mass in 1980.

Welcome to The Dialog’s Lenten Journey for 2026. Each morning we will bring you a thought to start your day — a passage from scripture, a quote from a saint or faith-filled person, or a suggestion for a work of mercy — along with links to each day’s readings and other Lent-related topics.

Additionally, everyone is invited to return to the Sacrament of Reconciliation during this holy season. Watch thedialog.org for more information about this year’s Reconciliation Monday in the Diocese of Wilmington.
