It is hard to believe that we are in the fourth week of Lent – already. The days seem to be running faster than normal. Perhaps it’s time that we start fast-ing for Lent. Read More
One of the things I like to do during Lent is read spiritual books. This always seems to put me on the right path toward learning more about my faith and how I can improve my prayer life. Read More
We have chosen to fast
Not with ashes but with actions
Not with sackcloth but in sharing
Not in thoughts but in deeds
We will give up our abundance
To share our food with the hungry
We will give up our comfort
To provide homes for the destitute
We will give up our fashions
To see the naked clothed
We will share where others hoard
We will free where others oppress
We will heal where others harm
Then God’s light will break out on us
God’s healing will quickly appear
God will guide us always
God’s righteousness will go before us
We will find our joy in the Lord
We will be like a well watered garden
We will be called repairers of broken walls
Together we will feast at God’s banquet table.
