As we enter the Season of Lent, there are some things we may want to take advantage of in order to enter into the spirit of the season. For instance, as a family you may want to have your family join you for one of these practices:
Reconciliation (Penance or Confession)
Stations of the Cross
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
Praying a Family Rosary
Collecting money to help the poor
Volunteering at a local food pantry or soup kitchen
Volunteering to help your Religious Education team as a teacher, teacher's aid or hall monitor
Grocery shop for an elderly or sick neighbor
Visit an elderly or sick neighor
Cook a meal for a mom with a new baby
Read the bible as a family
Watch a movie about Jesus or one of the saints as a family
Have a discussion at the dinner table tonight and discuss what ways you may enter more fully into the Season.
Why do we make sacrifices during the Season of Lent?
I am praying for you. Please pray for our catechists and volunteers.
In the Holy Name of Jesus, I pray
