Lent

No Greater Love: Celebrating Easter

The two greatest feasts of the Christian calendar focus on the theme of God as the Creator and Author of Life, both the temporal life and the eternal life that He prepares for us in heaven.

‘Twas the Night before Ash Wednesday

By Regina Hiney
‘Twas the night before Ash Wednesday
And all through the rooms
Every cushion was overturned
Every piece of old candy found and consumed
The children were negotiating their Lenten promises in bed
Trying to find loopholes in saintly feast days ahead
With wine and Facebook and chocolate on tap
I was trying to reconcile myself to the long Lenten slap
When all through the house there arose such a clatter
I ignored all the noise for I cared not for their chatter.
Not to the window,
