Work and purpose are closely connected. Especially in America. Especially in New York City.
Whatever you may [or may not] abstain from during this Lenten Season, I encourage you to walk toward Resurrection Sunday with expectation.
Lent has traditionally been a liturgical season of ‘alms-giving’, where we let go of our own desires and focus on the needs of others, especially the poor and needy.
Fasting helps to holistically create a bridge into the condition of the poor—it creates a connection that’s not just contemplated, but felt.
