Ash Wednesday

Although there is snow on the ground, we followed Jesus into the desert for 40 days. The BA community gathered together to pray and receive ashes marking the beginning of the Lenten journey. Our Sisters blessed the Operation Rice Bowls that is part of our traditional Lenten practice of prayer, fasting, and giving alms.



Lent is a most beautiful time to grow closer to the Lord and experience His immense love for you and for us. In honor of this sacred time, all blog messages will be kept as simple as possible.
