In this second episode of "Jubilee Journey Through Lent," Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC explores the true meaning of almsgiving by highlighting the Corporal Works of Mercy, encouraging us to love our neighbors through acts of charity, compassion, and sacrifice as a tangible expression of hope during this Jubilee Year.

Father Anthony encourages us to use the story of Noah’s ark as an example of how we all need an Ark, a place of refuge, for prayer and contemplation during tumultuous times.

Fr. Anthony reflects on Jesus’ cry from the Cross and what it means for us when we feel abandoned by God. Drawing from the Gospel of Mark, he shows how even in our darkest moments, we are invited to trust that resurrection and mercy await. Learn why 3 pm—the Hour of Mercy—is so powerful, and how Jesus’ suffering opens the door to grace for every soul.
