Our 2019 Lenten Lecture series focuses on our personal "Metanoia" regarding a transformative change of heart and spiritual conversion that includes repentance. During Lent, we encounter the world, ourselves and our God through this lens. Let us accompany each other on this Lenten journey of faith. View the flier.
