LENT 2007

Dear Friends in Christ,

We are in The Awesome Season of Lent.

Today, was the First Sunday of Lent.

I felt inspired as a "Catholic Blogger" to post these Links for your Spiritual Enrichment in this Holy Season.

A. From: http://www.jesus-passion.com

OBJECTIVES FOR LENT:

1) To confess and turn away from all sin in our lives through Penance/Confession and Prayer.

2) To increase our love for God by attending Mass and receiving the Body of Christ.

3) To increase our love for our neighbor by forgiving our neighbor their faults and by doing good works to help our neighbor and the community. This Lent ask God to give you the Grace to forgive those who have offended you the most.

4) To mortify the desires of the flesh through fasting and abstinence.

[ Lent is the period of 40 days including weekdays and Saturdays from Ash Wednesday, February 21st through Easter Saturday, April 7th.]
