During Lent we are called as good Catholics to fast and abstain from meat. We are called to pray more; the Church offers us spiritual retreats, Stations of the Cross every Friday at 7:00 PM followed by Movie & Scripture, daily and Sunday Masses. We are called to go to confession (to be forgiven we need first to forgive). We are called to be more charitable at home, at school, at work and in the streets. We are called to show through our good example our Catholic promises of LOVE.
