Introduction about

our Lenten Theme

This Lenten season, we are called to journey with Christ through the theme:

CHRIST’S LENTEN ITINERARY: OUR JOURNEY TO JUBILEE (Integrity and Holiness, Forgiveness and Reconciliation, Hope and New Beginnings).

Inspired by the Catholic Church’s invitation to be “Pilgrims of Hope” and Ligaya’s 50th Anniversary theme of “More Joy,” we are invited to walk in the footsteps of Jesus — to journey with Him in His suffering and triumph, allowing His presence to transform our hearts.

​

As a covenant community, this Lenten pilgrimage calls us to reflect on the integrity of our discipleship, to seek forgiveness and extend reconciliation, and to embrace the hope of new beginnings in Christ. It is a sacred time to allow God’s grace to transform us, that we may become true ambassadors of Christ (2 Cor. 5:17-20).

Our journey will be guided by the liturgical readings of the 40-day Lenten season as the primary source of our reflections, strengthened by several community gatherings:

​

• The Sector Assembly on March 9 to set the direction for our Lenten reflections

• A Lenten Recollection and Men’s & Women’s Group Sharing anytime from March 10 to 29 to deepen our reflection on the theme: “Personal Journey Towards an Undivided Life in Christ.”

• The District Reconciliation Experience on March 30 (Laetare Sunday) to offer us the gift of reconciliation with the theme: “The Joy of Being One.”

• The Sector Assembly on April 13 (Palm Sunday) to welcome Jesus, Our King, with the theme, “Blessed is the King who comes!”

• The Ligaya Triduum on April 17-19 to culminate our Lenten Journey

• The District Gathering on April 27 to celebrate

the joy of Easter together

As we journey from Lent to Easter, we trust that the Lord is preparing our hearts for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost — a new springtime of new beginnings, deeper unity, and more joy. May this Lenten season transform our lives and lead us to a fuller experience of God’s joy as we journey together towards our 50th Jubilee in July 2025.

Opening Prayer

Dear Father, we thank you for this grace-filled season of Lent, when we can join Christ’s Lenten Itinerary to make it our own journey to Jubilee.

​

Speak to our hearts and allow Your Spirit to lead us to the corners where we need to be whole and holy, to forgive and be reconciled and to hope and find new beginnings.

​

In Jesus, we pray. Amen.
