This Lent, we invite you to embark on a journey of Christ-centered wellness with Reform. Jackie and Dr. Bridget will guide you in deepening your relationship with Christ, fostering a spirit of repentance, and embracing the transformative power of this sacred season.

Lent offers a unique opportunity to reflect, repent, and realign our lives with God's will. Amid the challenges of daily life, it's essential to focus on spiritual and physical well-being. Together, we'll explore intentional practices to prepare our hearts and bodies for the joy of Easter.

“Lent is a time for greater love, listen to Jesus’ thirst... ‘Repent and believe’ Jesus tells us. What are we to repent? Our indifference, our hardness of heart. What are we to believe? Jesus thirsts even now, in your heart and in the poor—He knows your weakness. He wants only your love, wants only the chance to love you.”

— St. Teresa of Calcutta
