God Rich in Mercy(Eph 2:4) is the Pastoral Resource used by Catholics who joined Pope Francis in the second year of his "24 Hours for the Lord" initiative. This title mirrors the theme that guides meaningful reflection.

The purpose of this resource is to offer some suggestions that enable parishes and Christian communities to prepare themselves to live the Pope's initiative during the penitential season of Lent. These suggestions may be adapted to local needs and customs, as is appropriate.
