Last week I promised some more Lenten ideas from Sr. Janet. She reminded us that a Lenten practice doesn't have to make you miserable!! If we view Lent as a time of conversion and of building new habits that grow us into the amazing people of love that God has created us to be, it's actually a really exciting time, challenging, but EXCITING! Here are few ideas for the weeks ahead:
-Pray for the person ahead of you in line
-Learn about the indigenous people in our area and ask about ways to support their community.
-Write your mayor/legislator/bishop about an issue important to you.
-Text, call, or email someone just to say "thank you" for being you.
-Use a cloth towel rather than a paper towel
(TRULY, that was actually on the bookmark set she gave us!! GREAT MINDS!)
