Friends of the Rosary:
"Lent is a time to look inward and share our deepest desires, worries, and weaknesses with the Lord in prayer," Pope Francis said in his Ash Wednesday homily.
"The Lord is inviting us to remove the masks we so often wear and see ourselves as we truly are in the sight of God."
In his homily, Pope Francis encouraged everyone to make more space for prayer in silence in Eucharistic adoration during the 40 days of Lent.
He quoted advice from St. Anselm of Canterbury, an 11th-century Benedictine monk and doctor of the Church who wrote in 1078:
"Escape from your everyday business for a short while, hide for a moment from your restless thoughts. Break off from your cares and troubles and be less concerned about your tasks and labors. Make a little time for God and rest a while in him."
Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!
To Jesus through Mary!Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will!
