"We are all lost and ruined by the Fall, and Jesus is the one who has come to save us from that very thing. So penitence, this sense of somberness, is not meant to make us feel bad, but rather to invite us into the warm embrace of Jesus."
In this penitential season of Lent, Bishop Alex encourages us to let our guilt over the things we have done or left undone push us toward God instead of away from him.
