Lent 2017
It is finally Lent season in 2017! For the past couple of years I have felt as if I haven’t truly committed myself to my spirituality due to excuses of being busy and then going abroad. Therefore, this Lent I want to remain committed to the actions I am taking up and to what I am giving up.
- What I am doing:
- Going to mass on a weekly basis
- Praying with my daily spiritual and these online resources :
- Ignatian Spiritual Exercises
- Ignatian Solidarity
- Sacred Space (which is also an app)
- Arts and Faith for Lent
- Donating
- What I am giving up:
- Beef (a suggestion from Ross Garlick)
- Complaining
