Lenten Reflection
As we enter into the fourth week of Lent, we are pleased to feature a Lenten Reflection from St. Mary's Junior, Peter Garuti.
"Let us also love our neighbors as ourselves. Let us have charity and humility. Let us give because these cleanse our souls from the stains of sin. Men lose all the material things they leave behind them in this world, but they carry with them the reward of their charity and the alms they give. For these they will receive from the Lord the reward and recompense they deserve." - Saint Francis of Assisi
This quote from Saint Francis of Assisi talks about giving to others and the benefit that will come from it which to lent through the virtue of Almsgiving. Alms giving is one of the lesser practiced lenten virtues. Many people (especially people in high school) think that they have nothing to give. But giving is more than just money or more than just volunteering at a food pantry. Jesus tells Us to help the poor but in actuality we are all poor in one way or another and we are all rich in one way or another.
There are many types of poverty not just a material poverty but there is spiritual poverty, intellectual poverty, poverty in hope, poverty in love, social poverty etc. So when thinking about
what to do this lent think about what you have a talent for. An example would be that you could help a fellow student in a subject that they struggle with or you could give time to others that feel othered. So how YOU help the people around you? What are some talents that you have that you could share with others? How can you do more service during season of lent?
God Bless,
Peter Garuti '18
