Our 2009 Lenten and Easter devotions are now available online. We will be reading through the book of Genesis for Lent and the Gospel of John for the season of Easter.
The book of Genesis has long been used in the preparation of catechumens (candidates for baptism) in the Church. It is a central part of the Holy Scriptures and explores some of the most profound questions of faith: Why are we here? What are God’s intentions for creation? Who is God? What is God like?
The Gospel of John has been called the “theological Gospel” because it is in many ways a theological commentary on the Gospel. It explores the deep mystery and meaning of the incarnation of Jesus Christ. It provokes a deeper “What does this mean?” with each chapter.
