The Pastoral Centre is closed until April 5th.

Lent is a 40-day period that begins on Ash Wednesday and continues until Holy Thursday, the start of the Triduum. The liturgical colour of  Lent is purple to signify the penitential character of the season.  During Lent, Christians are encouraged to undertake the three great Lenten practices: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, in order to renew their mind, body and spirit before the renewal of their baptismal promises at Easter.  For more information on the seasons of the Liturgical Year, please visit our Liturgy Office page.
