“Lenten Program by the Preaching Band of the Oblates of Jaffna Province”
During the Lenten season, the Preaching Band of the Oblates of Jaffna Province organized a spiritually enriching program aimed at guiding the faithful through a time of prayer, reflection, and renewal. The program sought to deepen the participants’ spiritual lives and help them grow in their relationship with God as they journeyed through the season of Lent.
The Preaching Band, known for their insightful and inspiring messages, led a series of talks, reflections, and prayer services that focused on the themes of repentance, sacrifice, and renewal. Each session was thoughtfully designed to encourage personal reflection and to invite the faithful to renew their commitment to prayer, fasting, and almsgiving—the core pillars of the Lenten season.
Throughout the program, opportunities for confession, communal prayers, and moments of quiet meditation were offered, creating a deep sense of spiritual solidarity among the participants. The Preaching Band’s teachings and reflections were centered around helping individuals open their hearts to God, embrace His mercy, and prepare for the joy of Easter.
This Lenten program, led by the Oblates of Jaffna Province, provided the faithful with valuable moments of spiritual growth and renewal, fostering a deeper connection to the meaning and purpose of the Lenten journey
