Members of a Mystical Body

We should never take the universality and unity of the Church for granted. In his short message of encouragement, Fr. Peter Adrian frames our shared Lenten journey in striking terms: "This program," he says, "is really a miracle of God's grace, and it points to the mystical body of Christ in a beautiful way."

‍

We encourage you to reflect on this mystical body of Christ in these final weeks of Lent. Know that by your membership in it, you can be assured of our continued prayers, which grow more fervent as we draw nearer to Easter. Please do not forget to include us in yours.
