Lenten Services & Reflections
Lent 2008

In addition to these opportunities for gathering with others for prayer, reflection and faith sharing, Now is the Acceptable Time, Carlow University’s Daily Reflections for Lent written by members of the university community will be available widely throughout campus this week at the following locations:  Ash Wednesday services in Kresge and AJP, FWH Chapel and Lobby, the Campus Ministry Department, and the Mail Room. Many thanks to students, faculty, staff, Sisters of Mercy, alums and Campus School students who, through their personal reflections on the Lenten scriptures, become our companions on the Lenten journey.
