How to Lent

"How to Lent" and "Foretold" are both series from "Formed," that designed to invite us to navigate and deepen our Lenten practices, with "How to Lent" focusing on the basics of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, while "Foretold" delves deeper into the biblical prophecies and their fulfillment in the life of Jesus, connecting the Old and New Testaments to enrich the Lenten reflection experience.
