Upgrade your Lent with St Benedict

The only time St Benedict mentions ‘joy’ in his Rule is to describe Lent! ‘Preparing for the favourable time’ calls for

eager engagement, so that we do not stumble upon Lent, but embrace its invitation. Out of an array of liturgical texts

and spiritual writings, Abbot Paul will encourage reflection for this season of joy. ‘May the light of Christ rising in glory

dispel the darkness of our hearts and minds.’
