By it we gain strength against the princes of darkness, for it shields us with heavenly help. Should men grow remiss in their observance of Lent, it would be a detriment to God’s glory, a disgrace to the Catholic religion, and a danger to Christian souls. Neither can it be doubted that such negligence would become the source of misery to the world, of public calamity, and of private woe.",

At the very least, within this most holy of weeks, an added effort should be made to enrich the lives of those in need and less fortunate than ourselves. No matter what or how youre feeling, there are so many in a more dire state than yourself. Those who are struggling just to survive and those whos last breath is fast approaching. It is not an expensive thing to offer a kind word or gesture of support or concern to one whom is disadvantaged in one way or another.
