Lenten Customs
“Our challenge today is to renew our understanding of the important season of Lent and to see how we can integrate our personal practices into this renewed perspective,” writes Fr. Mick. In this Catholic Update Mick examines familiar customs of Lent—ashes, giving something up, examining our lives, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, Stations of the Cross, blessing of palms, prayer, fasting, almsgiving and the Triduum rituals—and shows how we can renew these customs to bring forth the baptismal theme."

Father Mick explains how Christ is present in several ways at our celebration of the Mass: the assembly, the word, the presider, and the meal. "Though they differ from each other, each of these presences is real," Father Mick writes, "and each offers us a unique opportunity to recognize Christ with us." UPDATED IN 2016.
