Dear Parishioners,
Lent is upon us! Don’t wait until the final week of this blessed season to make a Lenten plan. You could give up chocolate and soft drinks like so many other Catholics, or… you could try changing things a little. Check out this article to read about 25 weird things you can give up for Lent. https://media.ascensionpress.com/2019/03/04/25-weird-things-to-give-up-for-lent/
Here are a few:
¨ Hot showers (for champs!)
¨ Coffee (I have to confess: I can’t do this one)
¨ Cream and sugar
¨ Condiments
¨ Car audio
¨ Social Media (highly recommended)
¨ Netflix (or Hulu, Disney+, Amazon Prime, etc.)
¨ Diet Coke
¨ The Snooze Button (my nemesis)
¨ Comfy bedding or even your bed
¨ All meat or red meat (A tough one)
¨ Makeup (I don’t have to give up this one)
¨ Lenten Wardrobe (I don’t have to give up this one either)
¨ Control of the Remote (Control)
¨ Alcohol
There you go. Be original; be generous! And good luck!
God bless, Fr. Miguel
