What I am doing for Lent

1. Get up 30 - 45 minutes earlier and spend that extra time reading the bible, praying, reading my Lenten devotional book.
2. Go to Adoration twice a week (one weekday before work and Friday after Stations of the Cross.)
3. Participate in Stations of the Cross every Friday.
4. Fast and abstain on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday and abstain on all Fridays of Lent.
5. Instead of going out for dinner or getting take out like we do every Friday we will cook at home and give the money we saved to either the food bank or our mission in Peru.
6. Go to at least one week day Mass.
7. When I go to the Divine Mercy conference next week I will try to take as much as I can from the experience to share with everyone I meet IRL and in the blogosphere. I am starting a Divine Mercy novena this Friday which will conclude the Saturday of the conference.
8. Spend less time on the computer.
