Greetings Deacon Dinh,
We can get stuck seeing only the same old thing. Hurt, disappointment, and frustration can dim our vision. Anger and grief can blind us. When this happens it becomes easy to focus inward, become jaded, or even lose hope.
Throughout the Gospels stories, Jesus challenged those around him to see differently. He encouraged them to embrace creation as God intended it. Lent a little more than a month away. It is our time as missionary disciples for an annual spiritual eye exam. It is the opportunity to open our eyes, broaden our horizons, and dare to envision a world transformed by God's love. It is a time to take off our blinders and see anew.
To accompany you on the Lenten Journey, we invite you to save the dates for these events in March:
Visit Discover Your Neighbor to get lessons for globally-minded catechists and educators who want to guide their students toward making a difference in their world. The Lent edition will be available mid-February.
