Mass Preparation for the Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Mass Preparation for the Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time

A brief reflection to prepare for the Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time and the coming season of Lent. This Mass prep invites us to move beyond the simple question of “What are you giving up?” and instead reflect more deeply on the three pillars of Lent: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Drawing on the Beatitudes, the video explores how true blessedness is found in union with Christ—even in poverty of spirit, mourning, and persecution—and how these experiences shape us for holiness. Includes an invitation to upcoming liturgies, including Candlemas.
