Lent in Lakewood: Draw Near to the Heart of Christ
Lent is the Church’s invitation to step out of the rush and into relationship—to move from noise to stillness, from habit to intention, from distance to communion with Christ. These forty days are a corridor of grace where prayer becomes deeper, repentance becomes real, and love is reordered toward what lasts. The Cross is not a symbol we admire from afar; it is a mystery we enter. This season, let us walk deliberately toward the Lord who first walked toward us.
