Summary: Fr. Bryan Kassa gave this homily on the 1st Sunday of Lent at St. Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church in Troy, Michigan. He preached about Lent being a time of spiritual renewal to remind ourselves who we are and who we belong to. He preached about Lent being a time of not one but three things - Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving. 80% of Catholics abandon their Lenten promises find out why in this homily and don't be another statistic.
