Art teacher Rosalie Abadie who directs the Lenten Assembly, described the Lenten Assembly’s focus on “doing some needed renovations to our spiritual lives. We will examine the plans, tear down walls, restructure our hearts and build bridges to a better self, to others, our community, to forgiveness, to love of our God. Jesus was a carpenter by trade and he becomes our master builder.”
