Archbishop Naumann will be offering Lenten reflections that will provide spiritual nourishment for our journey to Easter Joy. Reflections will be available the week of Ash Wednesday and the following five weeks of Lent. Each 30-minute audio session will include the Archbishop’s reflection on the upcoming Gospel (Ash Wednesday/Sunday) and a short personal witness from a member of the Archdiocese. To listen to the latest Enflame Lenten Reflection visit archkcks.org
Past episodes will also be available as part of the Shepherd’s Voice podcast at archkck.libsyn.com

You can also follow Enflame Our Hearts-ArchKCK on Facebook to get links to the latest episodes.

Join hundreds of your friends and journey with us as we unpack the USCCB document “The Mystery of the Eucharist in the Life of the Church”. This 40-day Lenten experience (begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Palm Sunday) will encourage us to deepen our “Eucharistic amazement” in preparation for Easter. Each email contains a bite-sized excerpt from the U.S. Bishops’ document, followed by brief commentary and questions for further prayer/reflection/action. It will also include a link to the U.S. Bishops’ document in its entirety, and a free course offered by Bishop Cozzens.

The entire email is usually under 500 words and can easily be read in 5 minutes. Two ways to opt-in to the daily emails: 
1) Text 40for40 to 84576-click on the link on the welcome text to complete signup 
2) Go to archkck.flocknote.com/40for40 --complete the signup.

Opening on Ash Wednesday, March 2 - A Contemporary Way of the Cross is a riveting depiction in symbol and color of the fourteen Stations of the Cross by Ann Hatch, accompanied by the poetry of Sara Kuhn to enhance the experience of this fresh approach to an ancient Christian tradition. This will be a wonderful show to share with your friends from other Christian traditions as well as those who do not yet know the Lord Jesus and what he has done for us all.

The Lower Narthex Gallery is on the basement level of the church, accessible by either stairs or elevator from the Narthex (main vestibule).

Christ’s love for you is bursting forth. Embrace him and let his mercy pierce your heart during this Lenten season. Join us for a 40-day journey of welcoming his tender love, beginning with these short, daily videos from Scripture scholar Dr. Tim Gray. Live in Christ’s love and let him transform your life.

In The Sign of the Cross: Recovering the Power of the Ancient Prayer, Bert Ghezzi reminds us that the sign of the cross is a prayer in itself—one that bears great spiritual power.

This simple but profound gesture, Ghezzi affirms, opens us to God, renews our Baptism, and acts as a mark of Christian discipleship, one that repels the devil and helps us to resist our self-indulgence and tendency toward sin.
