On Holy Ground, a Lenten/Easter Journey begins with the First Sunday of Lent. There are various resources you can use for your prayer this week. Sunday's reflection was prepared by Judy Schiavo, one of our guest directors. Since the scriptures for the weekdays of Lent are the same each year, the reflections may be familiar to those of you who have journeyed with us in past years. All have been revised to reflect the challenges of our world and the theme of "Holy Ground." We've included Pope Francis' Lenten letter that can be another source of challenge and consolation for you. There is also a poem for the beginning of Lent written by retreatrant, Laura Parisi. Its title is "No Alleluia!"
