Human Transformation through Repentance: St. Mary of Egypt

About

Repentance is the tearing down of the wall that separates us from God. It is like the removal of a force field that prevents us from entering His Kingdom. It begins with the recognition of our own fallen nature and continues as we reconnect with our Creator. Each year during Great Lent, the church holds before us an enduring example of repentance and a reflection of the radical change that can occur in a human being with the life of St. Mary of Egypt.
