“In a statement released for the season of Lent, the Bishops’ Conference of Mexico called for the season of conversion be an occasion for rejecting organized crime and a time for drug traffickers abandon their practices.

“We have begun the liturgical season of Lent, which invites us to recommit ourselves to the Christian life and prepares us to celebrate Easter,” the bishops said.”*
