As we enter the month of March, the Church steps more deeply
into the sacred season of Lent.
Lent is a time of reflection, repentance, prayer, and renewal,
a forty-day journey that prepares our hearts to walk with Jesus toward the cross and the empty tomb.
The season of Lent is often understood as a time for giving things
up. We fast, simplify, and reflect on habits or attachments that may
distract us from our life with God.
If you’ve ever been on the beach in Myrtle Beach during turtle
season, you may know the story. Tiny hatchlings break free from
their nests, instinctively heading toward the sound of the surf and
the reflection of the moon and stars on the water.
