It’s that time of year again where we all crave our favourite
things—whether it be our favourite foods or our favourite activities. It’s also
the time we can eat our friend’s favourite food in front of them but they can’t
do anything but just look at you in #tears and #sadness.
But of course, most importantly, it is the Season of Lent; a season of
prayer, almsgiving, and sacrifice. During the Lenten Season, we recall the
suffering of Christ, His death, and His resurrection. This is a time where
Christians are called to repent for our sins as we reflect on each additional
wound we add onto Jesus’ body for every time we sin. It is also a time for
deeper prayer and reflection as we walk the Stations of the Cross together with
Jesus and experience his journey of pain and suffering.
The children of QCCC made colourful Lenten chains to guide us on our
Lenten journey. These chains consisted of ideas written by our fellow QCCC
members, which helped us stay on track this Lenten season through tasks of
almsgiving, sacrifice, and prayer. With ten tasks to a chain and a cut-out
cross to complete it, we all brought home with us a colourful personalized
rosary. We also welcomed all our alumni to walk with Christ this Lenten Journey
by completing the QCCC Lenten Challenge.
Go in peace, to love and serve the Lord…and don’t forget to upload your
pictures to our Facebook album with #QCCC #40LentenDays!
