2020 Saint Pius X Lenten Speaker Series
Tuesdays During Lent
Due to restrictions on gatherings at this time, the Lenten Series will not continue as an open event. The speaker and liturgy will be recorded and posted here weekly as scheduled. Thank you for understanding. 

Our Saint Pius X Parish community is celebrating a “Year of Evangelization,” but let’s be honest: it can be hard to know what evangelization means. It can be even harder to share the love and truth of Jesus with others. However, as Catholics, we have role models to encourage us in this: the saints!

During this year’s Lenten Speaker Series, we will reflect on how the saints on the right side of the triumphal arch show us what it means to evangelize and how we can joyfully and boldly share the Good News of Christ’s love with those who need it.
