Forgiveness is one of the greatest gifts we can give—both to others and to ourselves. This week, you could focus on the power of reconciliation. In our OCSB schools, students are exploring ways to create a culture of forgiveness, letting go of grudges and learning to mend relationships with kindness and humility.
Who in our lives do we need to forgive? Who do we need to ask for forgiveness? Consider discussing this as a family. Perhaps this week is the time to make amends, to soften our hearts, and embrace the peace that forgiveness brings. The Sacrament of Reconciliation offers a beautiful opportunity to experience God’s mercy. As we journey through Lent, let’s remind ourselves that forgiveness is not just an action—it’s a doorway to healing.
Join the Conversation with #ocsbLent
We encourage students, staff, and our wider OCSB community to share their Lenten experiences on social media using #ocsbLent. This season reminds us to be kind, generous, and thoughtful in our actions. Let’s use Lent as an opportunity to grow in faith and inspire positive change in our hearts, schools, and beyond.
