Purple Lent, a Time of Conversion
In Your Presence - A podcast by Eric Nicolai
Categories:
We began with the ashes on our forehead: “You are dust, and to dust you shall return" (cf.Gen 3:19). Pope Francis said: "The dust sprinkled on our heads brings us back to earth; it reminds us that we are dust and to dust we shall return." This is the itinerary we now embark upon: Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. All geared to inner conversion. Will this be the best lent of my life? The liturgical colour has changed to purple. This will set the tone. A meditation preached in Lyncroft centre in Toronto, by Fr. Eric Nicolai. Music: A. Vivaldi, Nisi Dominus, RV 608 - IV. Cum dederit.
