May the Holy Spirit, through whom we are "as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing everything" (2 Cor 6:10), sustain us in our resolutions and increase our concern and responsibility for human destitution, so that we can become merciful and act with mercy. In expressing this hope, I likewise pray that each individual member of the faithful and every Church community will undertake a fruitful Lenten journey. I ask all of you to pray for me. May the Lord bless you and Our Lady keep you safe.

We are near the midpoint of our Lenten journey. How has this journey gone so far? Have you remained firm in your resolve to turn from a particular sin that causes division between yourself, God and others? It is always possible to get back on the right path. It is also an opportunity to reflect on your efforts in serving the poor, in particular, through your support of Development and Peace. Are you doing what you can to support this great work?
