Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
As we draw near to the final days of Lent and prepare our hearts for the great Paschal Mystery, let us redouble our efforts in prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. These final days are an invitation to deepen our union with Our Lord in His Passion and to enter with renewed hearts into the joy of His Resurrection.
