St. John Paul II

During Lent let us improve our spirit of prayer and recollection. Let us free our minds from all that is not Jesus.
St. Teresa of Calcutta

Each year, Lent…stimulates us to rediscover the mercy of God so that we, in turn, become more merciful toward our brothers and sisters.
Pope Benedict XVI
