The Church’s liturgical seasons are a study in change, especially during Lent and Easter. In this booklet, we focus on the dramatic changes in the life of Jesus—and on Lent’s insistent call to change our own lives. Jesus’ encounters with darkness and evil, including his betrayal and arrest and his death on the cross, attest to the reality of suffering in life, accepting what we must, and changing what we can. His resurrection to new life, his ascension to the Father, and his sending of the Holy Spirit attest to God’s ability to trump evil, to banish sin, and to triumph over death. Easter is our celebration after “changing for the better” during the forty long days of Lent. The Holy Spirit is our gift, our light, our strength, and our advocate for the rest of the journey.
