My brothers and sisters, the reflection on non-violence is very much a part of our tradition as Catholic Christians and very much at the heart of what Lent means to us. We focus on the need to change our attitudes in order to live more deeply the life that has been given us in the person of Jesus Christ and through his passion, his death and his resurrection.

God pours out that love continually in and through the gift of his resurrection which we celebrate at the culmination of the Lenten Season.  Let us never forget that the resurrection is who we are.

Gregory Gay, CM  (Superior General)
