Lenten services

The Holy time of Lent is filled with more intense prayer, during which we meditate on the Passion of our Lord during Stations of the Cross and Lenten Lamentations.

St. Joseph pray for us!

In March we recite the litany to St. Joseph after each weekday Mass, on Saturday - after 5pm Mass, on Sunday after the 7:30pm.

Lenten Lamentations

The Lamentations are a traditional Catholic devotion known only in Poland, which contemplates the Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ through song, reflective prayer and intercession before the Blessed Sacrament, and preaching on the mystery of the Passion. There are three sets in the cycle of Lamentations. The first one focuses on Our Lord’s agony, His betrayal and subsequent arraignment before the Jewish Sanhedrin - prayed on the First and Fourth Sundays in Lent. The second series contemplates His trial before Pontius Pilate and His torture and mockery at the hands of Roman soldiers - prayed on the Second and Fift Sundays in Lent. The third and final series fixes its gaze upon the mystery of Christ crucified and the sufferings which He endured from His nailing to the cross to His final breath - prayed on the Third Sunday in Lent and on Palm Sunday.
