Catholic Lenten Resources from the US Bishops

February 5, 2008

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops has gathered a collection of interesting items on their Lenten Resources webpage.  The information is grouped around the theme of the sacraments that Catholics celebrate.

The first section focuses on ”Preparing for Holy Week” and includes several questions and answers about Holy Week. 

This is followed by a section on three sacraments — Eucharist, Penance, and Marriage, as well as a section on Devotions.  The website pulls together resources that have been developed at various times for various projects.  This includes resources from the Vatican, such as a lively interchange between children and Pope Benedict XVI, when the children were invited to ask him questions about the Eucharist.

A helpful brochure on Celebrating the Sacrament of Penance – Questions and Answers is also included.
