Lent’s almost here. Again. Yikes.
I’m becoming more of a minimalist when it comes to Lent. Less is more, no? One resource or one thing to concentrate on. After numerous Lents in which God delivered a more suitable, fruitful penance than I’d ever dream up, I’m learning to better accept God’s gifts, even those I’d just as soon re-gift.
Here are five resources to accompany you on your Lenten journey. Maybe one here will suit you this year. Or ready you to accept God’s plan for these forty days.
5 Resources for Lent: Books, Downloads, Support & More #Lent Share on XAbundant Mercy: Family Devotions and Activities for Lent by Claire McGarry
This new booklet has everything you’ll need in one small, attractive package. For each day of Lent, there is scripture verse, story, reflection, prayer, and suggested action. These can easily be read around the family table or whenever you have a few minutes together each day.
Lent Resources from Catholic Mom and Family Rosary
So much to choose from here! A playlist, recipes, activity pages, podcasts, and more. I’ve already downloaded my copy of the Printable Family Acitivities Calendar for Lent.
The Sermons of St. Francis de Sales for Lent
I purchased this book on the recommendation of Catholic Mom and Daughter. I loved St. Francis de Sales’s Introduction to the Devout Life but for some reason haven’t revisited his writing. This Lent, I will. While you’re visiting their channel, check out their other Lenten recommendations for videos, projects, and books. Just search “Lent” on their channel.
Rats! It’s Almost Lent from Erin McCole Cupp
Erin McCole Cupp has so much wisdom to share. Wisdom she’s come by the hard way. The authentic way. And she’s sharing some of it here. If I choose to accept her challenge this Lent, it may be the most difficult Lenten task I’ve adopted. It could also be the most fruitful. Listen all the way through for all of the resources.
