"Lent is a favourable time for personal and community renewal, as it leads us to the paschal mystery of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. For our Lenten journey in 2022, we will do well to reflect on Saint Paul’s exhortation to the Galatians: 'Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up. So then, while we have the opportunity (kairós), let us do good to all' (Gal 6:9-10)."
In his message for Lent 2022, Pope Francis is encouraging us to to persevere in doing good, one step at a time, and, if we fall, stretching out our hand to the Father, who always lifts us up.
