This Sunday is the halfway mark of Lent. If you’re anything like me, you could use a restart. We can’t hit rewind — oh, if we could! — but we can begin again, where we find ourselves.
I meant to post this Ash Wednesday, but late is better than never. As some of you know, I tend to have a surplus of holy cards — pocket prayers and reflections from various saints and other holy or otherwise reflective people. Like the book I put together a few years ago, A Year with the Mystics: Visionary Wisdom for Daily Living — currently on sale on Amazon — it is a mix of familiar names and faces like John Paul II and St. Paul as well as saints who may be new to you, like St. Marie of the Incarnation — her earthly remains are in a convent in Quebec City I visited and prayed for you at on a National Review cruise not too long ago.
If you would like a small package of prayers for your own meditation, simply email me at [email protected] with a good snail-mail address for you. If you have a religious-education class or prayer group you’d like to share some holy cards with, just let me know how many to make sure to send.
I’ll aim to send these out in the coming week. So you should at least have them for Holy Week and Easter, if not before.
God bless you — religious believers here of all persuasions and everyone.
