A Journey Through Lent: Daily Prayers from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday

As we enter the sacred season of Lent, I find myself reflecting on the importance of this time in our faith. Lent is not just a season of penance - it is a season of transformation, an opportunity to draw closer to God, and a journey that leads us to the heart of the Paschal Mystery.

Each year, I try to be intentional about how I observe Lent. 

Like many of us, I strive to embrace the three pillars of Lent: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, but sometimes, life gets busy, and despite my best efforts, I find myself losing focus. That’s why this year, I’ve decided to embark on a deeper, more structured spiritual journey through daily prayer.
