On the Second Sunday of Lent, the Church presents the Transfiguration to fortify us against the scandal of the Cross. The Mass of Reminiscere teaches that sanctification is God’s will, that we have no power of ourselves, and that glory is revealed to sustain obedience. Tabor is not escape but preparation. Hearing the Father’s command—“Hear ye Him”—we descend the mountain resolved to follow Christ through suffering to eternal light. https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/03/01/todays-mass-march-01-second-sunday-of-lent/
