Sinopsis

Hey everybody. I'm starting a journey this week, a journey into the Lenton season. I started doing Lent type things in the early 2000's because I wanted to experience spiritual "spring cleaning. Lent is an old Saxon word meaning Springtime and has been around for over 2000 years. Lent was a period of early observers would begin to prepare themselves 40 days before Easter. If people have been doing this for so long and it has been helpful for them, I should listen to them! I am inviting you to go with me into a season of “deep cleaning” with me in this Lenton season. Fasting is part of Lent.  Let go of something in order to take up something else. To fast is to slow down. For these weeks leading up to Easter, set aside this time to let the Lord work deeply in you. For no other reason than to draw you closer to Him, to be restored in Him. Focus: Repentance, Turning to the Lord Renewing our mind Renovating our heart A few tools we will use: The Lenten Prayer of St. Ephrem The Daily Office from the Book
