Parish Ash Wednesday and Lenten Schedules in the Diocese of Colorado Springs. 2025

Pope Francis calls each of us to be a tangible sign of hope for those in great need. Bishop Golka echoes this call, emphasizing that Jesus alone reveals the fullness of God’s mercy and the truth about humanity. He challenges us to step beyond our comfort zones, carrying Christ’s hope into modern society and making His presence known in the ordinary places of daily life. Throughout this year, the Herald will explore the many ways the faithful in our diocese are living out this mission.

COLORADO SPRINGS. The Colorado Springs Council for Black Catholics will hold its next Mass on March 8 at 5:30 p.m. at St. Joseph Parish in Colorado Springs. Light refreshments will be served after Mass. For more information, contact cscbc.be.seen@gmail.com. 

En muy poco tiempo, comenzaremos el Tiempo de Cuaresma.  A menudo, en el ajetreo de nuestras vidas, este tiempo santo de Cuaresma puede arrastrarse sobre nosotros y, de repente, es el Miércoles de Ceniza, y hemos hecho poco o nada para prepararnos para esta temporada penitencial.
