Fr Chris Caruana delivered a meaningful reflection on Lent and then celebrated Mass together with the parents at St Joseph Senior School, Sliema

With the words of Pope Francis….“that our Lenten celebration will open our hearts to hear God’s call to be reconciled to Himself, to fix our gaze on the paschal mystery, and to be converted to develop an open and sincere dialogue with Him” Immaculate Conception Secondary School – St Jeanne Antide College Tarxien united in prayer in their schoolyard.

“It is only in being creative that the individual discovers the self” – D.W. Winnicott
Students at St Jeanne Antide College Tarxien during the pastoral session, expressing their feelings through drawings. Through visualizing and looking at others’ paintings they reflected on how to acknowledge each other’s feelings without judging.
May we fast from impulsive judgments this Lent and learn to lose a little bit of ourselves to be there for others.
