We’re a month away from Easter on our Lenten Journey, and at this point the sacrifices we may have set for ourselves are becoming tedious. We’re missing the sweets we gave up, or the games on our phones, or whatever sacrifice we have made. But St. Francis de Sales reminds us today to stay strong in our Lenten endeavors and have patience, especially with ourselves. Approach each Lenten day one day at a time.
It’s Friday, so that means Fish Frys. One way to give alms this season is to support these parish endeavors. Find one here: thedialog.org/datebook-1/
