Week Three | Return: Lent with Fr. John Burns
This Week on FORMED — (March 13, 2023) • 9m 45s
Fr. John Burns reflects on the practice of fasting to return to the Lord. Fr. John affirms for us that it is in our suffering—our experiences of betrayal and rejection—that we are united with Christ and experience the victory of Christ on the cross as we carry our own crosses in life. In Lent, we are reminded that we are not alone. Christ walks with us every step of the way to bring us into communion with the father. How will you unite your suffering to Christ’s this Lent?
