This is the third year of our Lenten Station Masses where our diocese imitates the ancient practice of the Church in Rome, where the Pope would celebrate Mass in a different parish church on each of the days of Lent.
To prepare ourselves for the Celebration of Easter, Bishop John will celebrate a Station Masses with the people in our MATN cluster areas. At each Mass he will used the readings of the day to preach a short catechetical homily;
Catechesis on the Creed: A Simple Summary of What Catholics Believe.
Please come along to your cluster Mass, or maybe your Lenten discipline could be travel with the bishop and attend all of them!
