Penitential Celebration

According to Vatican literature, "Koinonia" is a day dedicated to communion and community renewal. Penitential liturgy is given and there are special services. It is not only a time of community renewal, but of personal renewal as well.

The Penitential celebration should include confession and absolution. Some communities suggest a day of fasting and giving to the poor. It is a celebration for Catholics to prepare for the Jubilee.

The Penitential liturgy will be sober. Symbols of Holy Water and the Cross should be visible. Services may consist of the Penitential Rite, Liturgy of the Word, Rite of Reconciliation, and Final Rite.

John the Baptist

John the Baptist was the prophet that prepared the way for Christ. He was Christ's cousin and the man that baptized Jesus.

The Greatest Commandment

In John 15:11-13, Jesus tells us how to have the greatest joy in love. In doing so, he also gave us the greatest commandment. He tells us, "I have told you this so that my joy may be in you
and your joy might be complete.
This is my commandment: love one another as I love you.
No one has greater love than this,
to lay down one's life for one's friends."

No Greater Love

In John 15:11-13, Jesus tells us how to have the greatest joy in love. In doing so, he also gave us the greatest commandment. He tells us, "I have told you this so that my joy may be in you
and your joy might be complete.
This is my commandment: love one another as I love you.
No one has greater love than this,
to lay down one's life for one's friends."

The Vine

Jesus introduced us to his idea of Christian Service when Jesus said to his disciples in John 15:1-8:
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower.
He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit,
and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit.
You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you.
Remain in me, as I remain in you.
Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own
unless it remains on the vine,
so neither can you unless you remain in me.
I am the vine, you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit,
because without me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me
will be thrown out like a branch and wither;
people will gather them and throw them into a fire
and they will be burned.
If you remain in me and my words remain in you,
ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you.
By this is my Father glorified,
that you bear much fruit and become my disciples."

40 Days to Make Things New

According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Lent is considered a season of penance. It is a time "particularly appropriate for spiritual exercises, penitintial liturgies, pilgrimages as signs of penance, voluntary self-denial such as fasting and almsgiving, and fraternal sharing (charitable and missionary works.)"
