In this segment from the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio, Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C. discusses St. Vincent Pallotti’s view of self-denial as a means of growing closer to God and the Saints.Self-Denial“I intend always to offer the Lord the negation of my will, united and offered together with that of all the just, the saints, Mary, and Jesus.” ~ St. Vincent PallottiListen to the previous installment on SolitudeLent is a special time to fast, increase prayer, and increase our almsgiving. Lent is a 40 day season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends at sundown on Holy Thursday. It's a period of preparation to celebrate the Lord's Resurrection at Easter. During Lent, we seek the Lord in prayer by reading Sacred Scripture; we serve by giving alms; and we practice self-control through fasting. We are called not only to abstain from luxuries during Lent, but to a true inner conversion of heart as we seek to follow Christ's will more faithfully. We recall the waters of baptism in which we were also baptized into Christ's death, died to sin and evil, and began new life in Christ. Notes:Click to view Lenten ResourcesRead Ad Infinitum Blog Posts about Lent
