Lent Companion 2025 (Preorder)
SHIPS IN FEBRUARY
Accompany Christ in the desert.
Between fasting, sacrificing, giving, recommitting to prayer, and doing penance, the season of Lent can feel like a 40-day spiritual marathon. As Catholics, we should approach the season with intentionality — taking it step by step and pushing ourselves a little more each day. But Lent is not just a prolonged spiritual exercise. Jesus is inviting us to enter deeply into the mysteries of our salvation, to find meaning in our suffering through His own, and to ultimately be made new. The 2025 Lent Companion serves as a roadmap for these encounters. By meeting Christ “in the desert” for 40 days, when we die to ourselves, we prepare for the eternal season of resurrection, when we live through Him.
