Merciful Father, protect us in our struggles; grant us your divine mercy as we make our journey through another Lenten season.
Make this for us a holy season marked by our self denial and our outpouring of love for each other, especially to those who are poor and deprived. We make our prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
"Order a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly;
Elders, call together all the inhabitants of the country to the house of God.
Cry out to Yahweh, 'Oh what a day!
For the day of Yahweh is near, it comes as a devastation from Shaddai'.
”
— Joel 1:14-15 (Jerusalem)
