The Holy Face at the Edge of Lent

A face-to face encounter can be a powerful thing. I experienced this with my own son while praying for someone who was sick and suffering. Leo’s sincere prayer for their deliverance brought me to tears. An offering like this is something we can all make. Before Lent, come face-to-face with the holy face of Jesus, and make a sincere offering.

Snippet from the Show

“An encounter that’s face-to-face is really the heart of the spiritual life. We seek to look into the eyes of Christ.”
