Made for Heaven: Holy Week

Fr. Agustino Torres, CFR, invites you on a pilgrimage this Lent using Made for Heaven: A Guided Lent Journal for Prayer and Meditation.

In this video, Fr. Agustino rejoices that we have finally made it to Holy Week, the holiest of all weeks! As Jesus enters Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, he also longs to enter the “Jerusalem of our heart.” Let this week be filled with holy services and special liturgies that draw our hearts closer to the Lord because we are made for heaven.

Join Fr. Agustino Torres, CFR—founder of Corazón Puro—on a multimedia Lenten journey inspired by St. Francis. Begin the season with a vow of poverty and end at Easter with a heart free from the desert of sin and open to love, serve, and care for others.

Made for Heaven features stunning original art by Valerie Delgado of Pax.Valerie, along with daily meditations on a passage from scripture, reflection questions, prayer, and space for journaling and notetaking.

A life of simplicity and poverty orients you toward God’s love and reminds you that you are made for heaven. Torres says the best way to prepare yourself for that final destination is to live as true pilgrims who need to “travel lightly” and detach from earthly pleasures.

Made for Heaven is perfect for both individual and group use. Free companion videos and a downloadable leader’s guide are available at avemariapress.com. The book and other resources are also available in Spanish.

Look for the Made for Heaven videos on each Sunday in Lent, here on CatholicMom.com at 10 AM Eastern.

Ask for Made for Heaven at your local Catholic bookstore, or order from Amazon.com or Ave Maria Press. Bulk discounts are available for your parish, book club, or prayer group when you purchase the book from Ave Maria Press.

Creados para el cielo: Semana Santa

En este vídeo, el padre Agustino se alegra de que finalmente hayamos llegado a la Semana Santa, ¡la más santa de todas las semanas! Cuando Jesús entra en Jerusalén el Domingo de Ramos, también anhela entrar en la “Jerusalén de nuestro corazón”. Que esta semana esté llena de servicios santos y liturgias especiales que acerquen nuestros corazones al Señor porque estamos creados para el cielo.
