Are you ready? I think I'm getting there...Elizabeth Foss wrote a beautiful article, for the Arlington Catholic Herald:
If you have a second, hop on over and read it! She has some great points worth reflecting on.
As far as our family activities... I have been busy cutting felt, in my free moments, for our Jesus Tree. It is alot of cutting! :) Hopefully I will have week 3 completed soon!
Also... if you are looking for a few more ideas of things to do with your children, don't miss Amy's beautiful Lenten Calendar, and all the wonderful ideas over at Ruth's blog. I LOVE Ruth's stations of the cross candles. If we didn't go to church for the Stations each week, I would be making them!!!
Wishing you all a very blessed Lent!
How can we complain when He Himself was considered 'as one struck by God and afflicted' (Isa. 53:4) ~ St. Therese of Lisieux
You have really great ideas. I wish I had the energy to make these crafts : ) I think your Lenten calendar is wonderful! I'm glad you like the candles. Thanks for putting a link on your post. Have a blessed Lent.
