Not
by Bread Alone
A
family copy of Not by Bread Alone is being provided for each of our
parish families. Your copy may be picked
up in the Narthex.
“Find spiritual
sustenance for the season of Lent in Jay Cormier's reflections on the daily
readings. Not by Bread Alone offers a short collection of insightful
meditations that focus on Lenten themes of repentance and redemption, sacrifice
and salvation-as well as the Easter promise of resurrection and new life. With
Scripture as the foundation for each day's brief entry, readers will find the
guidance they need to become closer to God's Word during this holy time of
year. The short yet significant reflections in this pocket-sized book make it
simple for even the busiest person to make prayer a priority throughout the
Lenten journey.” Liturgical Press
