First Sunday of Lent 2020
This sermon begins with a review of the Lenten regulations and a recalling of the life and the struggle for his vocation of St. Thomas Aquinas, whose feast is this week. Then we learn about the sacramental of ashes which is a powerful aid during this season which offers us more graces than at any other time during the year. With this help we perform supernatural works which overcome everything that separates us from God. After His forty days of fasting in the desert, Our Lord showed us how to defeat the devil and his temptations. We are meant to follow Christ’s example.
