• Giving up habits that pull us away from God during lent is a great way to make room in our lives for things that bring us closer to him instead. However, if we’re not used to praying consistently, it can be difficult to know where to start. Lectio Divina is one of many forms of prayer that provides structure while leaving room for meditation.

      The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has provided guides for Lectio Divina focused on the weekly readings during lent.
