Lent is just one week away.  Any plans?
Lent: Prayer, fasting and almsgiving

Lent is just one week away. What are your plans to make it a great one? In the past I have shared some ideas. Please make sure to type in “Lent” in the search bar to the right to read some old posts or simply click above on “ideas” and the link will take you there. Today, I just wanted to share some titles I thought you may be interested in using during Lent. I think these titles will help focus your attention on our Lord and His Word. They are:

Gospel Reflections by Bishop Barron – here you will find the daily Gospel readings, Bishop Barron’s thoughts and then room for your own reflection. Sadly as I check the Word on Fire website, it seems the book is sold out. However, you can sign up on the site to receive Bishop Barron’s Gospel Reflections via email. Bishop Barron is a treasure, I would definitely recommend signing up for his daily reflections.

Sacred Space 2019 by the Irish Jesuits – here you will find a weekly theme to ponder, along with daily Gospel readings and inspiration points to go further in your thoughts about what you just read.

Mary, A Beacon to Light the Way by Joan Chittister – if you have a deep devotion to Mary, you may want to check this out. It contains one reflection for each of the Sunday Gospels and draws on the various facets of Mary.

Wishing you a Spirit-filled, blessed Lent! God bless you.
