It's Beginning to Look a lot like Lent

It's been a full week here preparing for Lent with Kevin busy working on FOCUS' Lentsanity campaign. The 20 book giveaway is still up for another few hours and for the rest of the day you can buy the Kindle edition of Kevin's book, Through the Year with Pope Francis, for only $2.99! The book is currently the #1 book in Catholicism and Christian Denominations categories!

After going to mass at the office, the kids and I spent the afternoon preparing the house for Lent.


Our crown of thorns is ready to have its thorns removed and our piggy bank is ready to be filled with coins.


Our Jesus Path is ready to be filled during our nightly family prayer with symbols from the life of Christ.


Our stations box and candles are ready to be used on Fridays when we pray the stations.


Our Easter "Alleluia" banner has been buried (under a lamp).


My Lenten reading has been placed by our rocker.


And Lent at Ephesus has been loaded onto my computer.

Let the prayer, fasting, and almsgiving begin!
