40 Days of Lent at Blessed Sacrament
Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, and ends three days (the Thursday) before Easter Sunday.
- In 2025, Ash Wednesday is on Wednesday, March 5th.
- And Lent ends on Thursday, April 17th
Lent is the Season of Transformation, a time when we ought to take great steps in slowing down, decreasing temporal responsibilities in order to focus on our spiritual lives, reflecting on the reason we are Catholic – God fulfilled His Promise! The Word became Flesh and Died for Us so that we might live eternally with Him! We have been rescued! We are no longer destined to return eternally to the ashes; if only we would reach out and grab Jesus’ Outstretched Hand! Be Transformed in the Holy Spirit!
