Description

The season of Lent is not far away – Wednesday 22nd February is Ash Wednesday – and this treasury of prayers and devotions will be so beneficial during the 40 day period wherein we strive to draw closer to God.

Fr Lawrence OP offers three powerful Lenten devotions.

These Lenten devotions derive from the Lenten practices of the faithful at St Dominic’s Priory church (the Rosary Shrine) in London.

The Stations of the Cross feature photographs of the splendid stations in St Dominic’s to accompany the traditional prayers and Fr Lawrence’s meditations.

The Cantincle of the Passion is a 16th century devotion based on the words of Scripture as revealed to the mystic and stigmatic St Catherine de Ricci; it is traditionally prayed by Dominican nuns on Fridays in Lent.

Finally, Fr Lawrence ofers a set of recollections on the Seven Words of Jesus on the Cross, which form a powerful object of contemplation for Holy Week.
