Friday in the Fifth Week of Lent

We pray through a Lenten Friday reflection on Holy Communion, focusing on why the Church sings during Communion and why silence afterward matters. We challenge ourselves to seek real joy in the Eucharist and to stay after Mass for intentional thanksgiving instead of rushing out. • opening prayers and offering the day through Mary in union with the Mass • Communion chant as a sign of unity of hearts through unity of voices • joy at Holy Communion as a supernatural fruit even in sorrow • silent thanksgiving after receiving Communion and after Mass • practical ways to renew devotion: intentional preparation and speaking to Jesus after receiving him • examination questions on whether Communion has become routine If you found this time of prayer and reflection fruitful and would like more opportunities to grow in your faith in this lint, consider joining the Cristeros and purchasing our Lenten Reflection booklet is now available on Amazon.com. The Cristeros app is available on the Apple app and Google Play Store. More information on the Cristeros can be found at theCristeros.org. Send us Fan Mail
