Catholic Mass Times in Lent
An Important Lent Message about the Catholic Mass Times App
Hello,
I am Pablo Licheri, founder and main donor of this project, and I want to thank you for coming to this page.
Lent is here, a 40-day season of preparation to celebrate Our Lord Jesus Christ’s Resurrection at Easter.
It's a period of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. We are called not only to abstain from luxuries during Lent but to a true inner conversion of heart as we seek to follow Christ's will more faithfully.
I want you to know that Catholic Mass TImes is helping hundreds of thousands of Catholics along their 40-day Lenten journey to Jesus. Here is behind the scenes of three actions we are doing:
Listing all Catholic Churches in the USA: we have been working hard these last months adding hundreds of US churches each week to the app. We currently list all churches where 93% of US Catholics live. We are working on listing the 50 dioceses where the remaining 7% live. We hope to finish this task during Lent.
Upgrading the app with two search filters: we are adding a new search feature to allow filtering Mass times by day and time in two screens. These features were the most voted by our users in the most recent survey. As I write this email, two developers and I diligently work on the data processes.
This Lenten season, I ask that you include Catholic Mass Times in your almsgiving. Because you know the benefit of using the Catholic Mass Times app, I invite you to support our work.
Your financial contribution helps us improve the app, serve more parishes, reach more Catholics, and make the sacraments more accessible to every Catholic, everywhere they live and everywhere they go!
I ask that you help us do all of this by donating today.
With your cooperation, we will make this Lent the season that Mass attendance (facilitated by our app) achieves record levels, and we will all be closer to God as we are today.
Thank you for being part of our mission to spread the Gospel to all nations.
May God bless you,
Pablo
