ABC NE 2025 Lenten Devotional Guide

Lent serves a similar purpose to Easter as Advent does to Christmas—a period of expectation, contemplation, and preparation for Calvary. This season is purposefully designated to aid us in preparing for that critical moment to prepare Jesus for burial. Forty days are dedicated to penance, rededication, meditation, and reflection.

This devotional has been created to guide you on this sacred Lent journey. It aims to help you draw closer to the Lamb of God who takes away the world’s sin (cf. Jn 1:29) and prepare you for His burial and resurrection.
