The Necessary Consequence of Sin (Lent 2026)
Have you ever looked at your life and quietly thought, “How did I end up here?”?
Continuing their Lenten reflection on the Prodigal Son, the friars look at the hard truth: sin always leads somewhere.

Join us as we name the cost of going our own way, and remember that the Father’s mercy is always waiting.
