mohawk said:Reading Saint Faustina's Diary for lent
So far my Lent is just doing what is required. I have been watching more Spiritual programming on TV. Thats about it. I'm thinking of delving into the Bible & reading in chronological order. That will carry me well after Lent.
This 'Prayer Before a Crucifix' carries a plenary indulgence on Fridays in Lent...
A plenary indulgence is offered on Fridays in Lent for the Christian faithful who piously pray the below prayer before a Crucifix: "Behold, O good and sweetest Jesus, I cast myself upon my knees in Thy sight, and with the most fervent desire of my soul I pray and beseech Thee to impress upon my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope and charity..."
i went to confession today
but then I ruined everything agian
I am a mess
I'm back! I am gonna remind you all that I am gonna abstain from overusing my laptop starting tomorrow from the usual 4-8 hours down to 10 minutes to 2 hours. I am gonna do it for the sake of Lent.
Saturday we went to Father Silanus Casey Tomb in Detroit and had confession and prayed over his tomb and boght a dozen green sapulars and had them blessed.
Our Church hosts a Lenten Symposium every year and has some of the best speakers possible. For example this year:
Holy Trinity Apostolate
I don't live too far from there. I wish I had known about it. Maybe I'll go next year and I can meet some of my OBOB friends.
That is a great idea!
If I usher I can go for free too.
