Lent



For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16


Tomorrow is Shrove Tuesday...& so we prepare for a time of great reflection.

We will begin our day with our favourite Pancakes.

Our nature table has been cleared, ready to home our Jesse Tree & crown of thorns. (Photo's tomorrow)

This site aims to help parents pray from the heart with their children on the five Sundays of Lent.

Here is a list of ideas to inspire worship this Lenten time. I hope to keep my family's time simple & focused.

"Lent is then not a season of punishment so much as one of healing." ~ Thomas Merton

I'm so glad you're posting about this Lynn - I really want to do something with the children but haven't been very organised; thanks for inspiring us as usual!
Blessings
