Lectio Divina

Close your eyes... relax your shoulders...take a deep breath... breathe in and breathe out... feel yourself being filled with the Spirit of God's love. Imagine being gifted every Friday for five consecutive weeks in the beautiful sacred chapel of the Benedictine Sisters at St. Walburga Monastery with an hour of meditative reflection. This is the spiritual sustenance for our season of Lent. With Scripture as our foundation to grow closer to Jesus, we listened with the ear of our hearts to His precious Word: "Rise and you will not be afraid."
With Jesus by our side, what is there to fear?

May this Lent be a holy time filled with faith and hope in the love of Jesus for each one of us. Peace be with you!
