A Lenten Experience with The Saint John’s Bible

Rev. Dr. John F. Ross. Executive Director of The Saint John’s Bible Heritage Program invites us to share in two ways The Saint John’s Bible can help create margin in your life, especially during the Christian season of Lent. The following is a excerpt and video taken from heritage.saintjohnsbible.org from Ash Wednesday.

Margins on a page are something that we can easily take for granted. But margins are what makes it possible for us to fully appreciate the thousands of columns of script and the hundreds of fantastic illuminations that lie between them in The Saint John’s Bible. Similarly, intentionally creating space in our busy lives is one way to create the margin for renewal and restoration.

Week 4 – From The Margin:
Suffering Servant and The Transfiguration

ROSARY FOR PEACE

Today, on the Solemnity of the Annunciation of our Lord, the patron of our diocese, we will gather at the Cathedral Basilica of Christ the King in Hamilton to pray for peace, especially in Ukraine, and, in union with Pope Francis, to consecrate Ukraine and Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. You are welcome to attend in person at 11am, the prayer will also be livestreamed on the Cathedral’s YouTube channel which you can access by clicking here.

Join Fr. Raphael as he leads us in praying the Stations of the Cross on this Friday in Lent. This Way of the Cross was originally led by Pope Francis on Good Friday in 2015, at the Colosseum in Rome. The meditations for each station were written by the late Cardinal Renato Corti.

The images used in this video were taken by St. Francis of Assisi pilgrims in the Holy Land in 2016.
