As the Lenten season is about to begin, Archbishop Murphy shares some memories of Lent as a youth in his weekly “In Joy and Hope” column for the Catholic Northwest Progress. “These memories of a Catholic childhood are not an exercise in religious nostalgia, nor are they a cry for a return to an earlier era,” he said. “Yet, on this eve of Ash Wednesday, as I write these reflections, I can’t help but wonder if the values of past experiences might not be appropriated for my life today.”
