Lenten Resource

Our resource this Lent is parish-created and based upon C2C leader feedback. While we will continue to focus on the upcoming Sunday Gospel as we normally do in our C2C small groups in Lent, each week we will take a deeper dive into the Gospel:

• We'll begin each week with 'setting the scene' for each week's Gospel
• Then we will read and discuss the Gospel
• Then we will pray through the Gospel experiencing different prayer types including Visio Divina, Ignatian Contemplation, Praying in Color, Lectio Divina, and more. These prayer types are also great for you to use in your personal prayer time.
• Color copies of the handouts are available in the Parish Office, the Sacristy, the Ministry Center and the Bay Room. Pick up what you need and recycle for other small groups if you can.

In addition, each week we will have a short video (3-5 minutes) from Gayle Heyman, our Director of Religious Education, that will focus on a particular aspect of Lent for you and your small group to watch and discuss. Below you will find all the resources you need for each week.

For C2C small group leaders preparing for the C2C discussions, click the links below for handout and video on prayer. Both tools walk you through the different prayer types you will lead your small groups through in the 2nd Sunday - 5th Sunday of Lent, and Easter. And the handouts for these different prayer types are below.

Acts of the Apostles

Jesus and the Eucharist

This 7-session series, brought to us by the National Eucharistic Revival immerses participants in the Good News and unveils God's saving work in the Eucharist. St. B's created an adapted version of the resource that more closely aligns with our C2C small groups that meet for 60-90 minutes.
