Wednesday of the Third Week of Lent
Lenten weekday
Lent is forty days of prayer, fasting and almsgiving in preparation for Easter.
Readings of the day
Glorious Mysteries
First Mystery: The Resurrection
“He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where the Lord was lying.”Matthew 28:6
On the third day Jesus rises gloriously from the dead. The angel at the empty tomb tells the holy women not to be afraid, and the risen Lord Himself meets them.
Fruit of the mystery: Faith
Act of Contrition
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins because of your just punishments, but most of all because they offend you, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve, with the help of your grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin. Amen.
