2011 Lenten Podcasts

CHA is pleased to offer a fourth series of Lenten reflections. The weekly reflections are for the 2011 season of Lent, which begins with Ash Wednesday on March 9, and continues through Holy Saturday, April 23. An Easter season reflection completes the series. May they deepen your spiritual journey and strengthen your relationship with God and others.

The author is Sr. Marie Michele Donnelly, RSM, who currently serves as co-director of Mercy Spiritual Ministries, through which she provides preached retreats for parishes, school faculties, ministry groups, ecumenical groups and religious communities. She is an adjunct theology professor at Gwynedd Mercy College and holds a master of arts degree in theology from Villanova University.

These reflections are offered as MP3 files for easy downloading and use. Printable PDFs are included for each reflection so that participants can fully experience the message, either in audio or visual delivery.

CHA’s previous Lenten reflections series are also available on the Prayer Index.
