Lent: The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
2025-03-12 10:00 - 12:00
Wednesday, March 12 | 10am to 12pm [or] Thursday, March 13 | 6:30pm to 8:30pm
Presented by Sister Susan Arcaro, rc in English
Each year, we are called to embrace Lent with a spirit of sacrifice, contrition, and reparation. Rarely, however, do we consider Lent as a journey of incredible love, unimaginable joy, or ardent longing. The wonder of Lent begins with an invitation to ‘see’ more clearly how deeply God loves us and continues with our desire to respond with fervent love to LOVE everlasting.

Their Small Group creates a welcoming space where participants can truly be seen and heard.
This Lent, they will focus on “The Bible and the Virgin Mary”, a faith resource by FORMED, only in Spanish. Join The Little Flower Group 2:42 and learn why the early Church called Mary the “New Eve” and the “Ark of the New Covenant,” and strengthen your devotion to Our Blessed Mother.

Through the Desert, God Leads us to Freedom (ES)
2025-02-28 07:00 - 20:30
Presented by Ana Correa in Spanish
Friday, February 28 | 7pm – 8:30pm
The people of Israel have been freed from slavery to Pharaoh, but they carry slavery in their hearts. They are free on the outside and slaves on the inside. Are we still under Pharaoh’s rule? Are we focused on reaching the Promised Land?
Let us welcome Lent as the important time in which his Word addresses us once again: “I am the Lord, your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the place of slavery” (Ex 20:2).
It is time to act, and in Lent, to act also means to pause. I invite you to pause in prayer, to leave behind the idols that weigh us down, the attachments that imprison us. Slow down, then, and pause! This is God’s dream, the promised land to which we journey once we have left our slavery behind.
Nursery available if requested through registration. For questions, contact Carmela Trevino at carmela@popfb.org.
