As we journey together through the solemn days of Lent, the Alliance for Catholic Education and ThinkND invite you to join us as we walk toward the light that our faith tells us lies ahead.

Join us for Grace Period, a weekly series of audio reflections by Fr. Lou DelFra, C.S.C. ’92, M. Div. ’03, designed to meet your busy schedule and help you pause, listen for God’s voice in your life, and begin anew.

We began the journey of Grace Period on Noah’s ark, weathering the first global pandemic and the destructive waters of the Great Flood.

We continued the journey on the waters of Galilee, where our travels were beset by sudden squalls that threatened to swamp our boat.

And last week, Holy Week, we walked the great storm of Jesus’ Way of the Cross.

These waters, which disrupted our lives, which threatened our lives and were the cause of so much fear – Christ has walked over them, and stands firmly now on the shore.

How? The Gospel’s ultimate answer is so simple, yet it is our greatest discovery: Christ is risen, alleluia! Christ is truly risen, alleluia!

Thank you for walking this journey of grace with us over these past weeks. May our Risen Lord who has conquered the storm fill us with hope as we guide our boats to shore.
