About the Speaker: Father William J Grimm is a Maryknoll Missioner of 40 year’s experience in Asia-mostly Japan, Hong Kong and Cambodia.

In Lent we reflect upon sin in our lives. We might not notice, however, that besides being personal actions or failures, sin is also a pervasive reality from which we cannot escape even when we want to. Only Christ can free us from that reality and cleanse us for life with God.. Father William Grimm shares some thoughts on this.
