Would anyone like to share what they have given up and how your personal penances have contributed to a deeper and more intimate union with Our Blessed Lord? Any challenges? Anything? 🙂
 
I was doing well for about the first 5 days, then went off the rails badly. Trying to get back on track now.
 
“Though the just fall seven times, they rise again.” Proverbs 24:16 🙂
 
I gave up alcohol for lent. I was doing well until the noreaster hit - twice. That would make anyone drink! I’m back on track now. Sometimes I think God sends terrible weather my way just to tempt me. Guess I failed.
 
As a Parish and Diocese we have been doing prayer and Penance and alms giving for all those in the situation we find ourselves in atm.

There are a couple of huge challenges as a community.
