With Ash Wednesday, our path to Easter opens. The time of Lent is a time of grace. It offers us the opportunity to return to what is essential to our condition as disciples of Jesus. It is a time to turn more towards prayer and sharing. It is also the privileged moment to make the conversions that we perhaps tended to put off until later.
 
This year, to accompany you on this journey, the CCCB offers a short video (3 to 5 minutes) each week where you will hear a meditation on the Sunday Gospel. Here is the link to access these videos:

During this time, let us also keep in our prayers the two young adults who will be baptized during the Easter Vigil at the cathedral.
 
I wish you a fruitful Lent!
