Prayer
Lord Jesus,
help us to listen to Your
voice this Lent.
Strengthen our hearts
in times of trial,
and give us the courage
to carry our crosses
with faith.
May we always keep
our eyes on Your glory,
and follow You
faithfully every day.
Amen

2nd Sunday of Lent Year A
“May your merciful love be upon us, as we hope in you, O Lord "
At the Transfiguration, the disciples are given a glimpse of
Christ’s glory before they face the Cross. Before the darkness of Calvary, God grants them light. Before the trial, he strengthens their faith.
Lent is our mountain moment - a time to listen again to the
Father’s voice. “This is my beloved Son. Listen to Him.”
As we pray, fast, and reach out in kindness to one another, this
Lenten season, may we trust that beyond every cross lies the
promise of glory.
