Online Lent Book Discussion
Starts February 22, 2023
We are delighted to announce The Inner Voice of Love: A Journey through Anguish to Freedom as the featured book for Lent 2023. This book is a journal of Henri’s most difficult period of his life. It has, however, been called a life-changing book, one especially for those seeking spiritual growth!
Things get underway with greetings and introductions on Ash Wednesday, February 22. Then beginning on Sunday, February 26, and continuing each Sunday during Lent, moderator Ray Glennon will post questions based on that week’s reading. It’s a wonderful way to add meaning to this season. Be sure to join us!
