Happy Sunday! Bon Voyage!
We have entered the season of Lent, a time of conversion, of turning toward God. Next weekend reclaimsunday.net will be in the Holy Land.
Every effort will be made to post from Israel. It has been a time of preparation. We seek holy ground where we grow in the full stature of our Baptismal call. Fr. Stephen C. Doyle in: The Pilgrim's New Guide To The Holy Land, with over
100 trips there describes a pilgrimage as " a means of following the gospel." He notes a pilgrimage to Jesus' land " is just one more way of saying yes to his invitation." The gospels are relevant and good as "they are interested in helping us
to change our biographies, so that Jesus might be Lord of our life."
So, this Lent is our life a gate to yes for God and a biography of hope in the risen Lord?
Readers

peace in the Middle East!
