As Lent approaches, the CCCB has again produced a series of reflections for Ash Wednesday and the Sundays during Lent. Each Monday, a new video will be released for the upcoming Sunday on the website of the CCCB. We are grateful to Bishop Gerard Bergie of the Diocese of St. Catharines and Msgr. Marcel Damphousse, Archbishop of Ottawa, for providing these reflections for us.
