Sign of the Cross
For we who are Christians, the sign of the cross is the greatest sign language we possess. When we make the sign of the cross, we know with whom we travel, whose word we can trust and share with others, and we know where we are going. We know the sign.
Activity
Lent activities start on Ash Wednesday and end on Wednesday of Holy Week.
Thought for the Week
Daily Reflections for Lent 2008
Saint Francis reminds us to do more than look at the cross. We see the external cause of pain. We need to look for the interior love that accepted the pain and gave it meaning.
