Your Lenten Mission

Lent is a season of prayer, fasting and almsgiving. As Catholics and as Knights, it’s an opportunity to grow closer in our relationship with Jesus Christ so we can better lead our families and serve our parishes and communities. We hope these resources can assist you in your Lenten journey.

How to Embrace Suffering

No one escapes pain and suffering. And while they were never meant to be part of God’s plan for the world, they’re still paths to drawing close to him. This Lent, let your fasting and prayers bring you closer to the mystery of suffering – and how we can find God in it.
