LENTCAzT 2024 – 29: Wednesday of the 4th Week of Lent – Openings and Exorcisms

Episode description

A 5 minute daily podcast to help you in your Lenten discipline.

Today, we go back in time to the special rites performed for the ancient catechumens on this day, once the mid-point of Lent. These rites eventually came to be part of a continuous rite of baptism. They included the placing of salt in the mouth, the opening of the ears, and several exorcisms. Today we hear the second of the exorcisms. Last year we heard the first (which I’m sure you remember).
