It is a time when we are called to return to the path of holiness and to rediscover the spiritual practices that nourish our soul. In this series on the Pivotal Players from Word on Fire Ministries, we present the stories of saints whose struggles and triumphs have inspired generations of Christians in their life of faith. These saints show us that there are many pathways to a deeper life with Christ the Lord and that God continues to invite everyone to make the journey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Facilitated by Sister Carla Thomas, O.P., Ph.D.<br \/>\n(of the Dominican Sisters of St. Catherine of Siena).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Saturdays from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm, in the Parish Auditorium<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>February 28th<\/strong> &#8211;\u00a0Saint Francis of Assisi<br \/>\n<strong>March 14th<\/strong> &#8211;\u00a0Saint Augustine of Hippo<br \/>\n<strong>March 21st<\/strong> &#8211;\u00a0Saint Benedict of Nursia<br \/>\n<strong>March 28th<\/strong> &#8211;\u00a0Saint Therese of Lisieux, Saint Katharine Drexel,<br \/>\nEdith Stein (Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross), and Mother Teresa of Calcutta<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Parish Auditorium entrance is located under the archway<br \/>\n~Please note the auditorium is NOT wheelchair accessible~<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21359,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpscppro_dont_share_socialmedia":null,"_wpscppro_custom_social_share_image":0,"_facebook_share_type":"default","_twitter_share_type":"default","_linkedin_share_type":"default","_pinterest_share_type":"default","_linkedin_share_type_page":"","_instagram_share_type":"default","_medium_share_type":"default","_threads_share_type":"default","_google_business_share_type":"default","_selected_social_profile":[],"_wpsp_enable_custom_social_template":false,"_wpsp_social_scheduling":{"enabled":false,"datetime":null,"platforms":[],"status":"template_only","dateOption":"today","timeOption":"now","customDays":"","customHours":"","customDate":"","customTime":"","schedulingType":"absolute"},"_wpsp_active_default_template":true},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21358","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>2026 Lenten Series: The Life and Spirituality of the Saints - St. Peter&#039;s Church<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/stpeterstoronto.ca\/main\/2026\/02\/11\/2026-lenten-series-the-life-and-spirituality-of-the-saints\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"\u2728 2026 Lenten Series: The Life and Spirituality of the Saints \u2728 %\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Join us this Lent for a 4\u2011part series designed to help you renew your relationship with the Lord through the inspiring stories of the saints, featured in Pivotal Players from Word on Fire Ministries.
