Lent begins one week from today on Wednesday, February 14, 2024. What are your plans for Lent? Consider a visit to the Shrine during Lent and pray the Stations of the Cross. Or purchase a set of “St. Therese of Lisieux Sacrifice Beads” in the Gift Shop to grow in virtue by offering sacrifices and noting them on your beads daily especially during Lent.
