Ash Wednesday.



A new background for our computer - we change the background to reflect our current study/artist and the liturgical year.....Currently, we have on one computer, an icon of The Last Judgement. You can see an image
here.

Attending Mass this evening, after what looks to be a VERY busy day today.

"The Christian Church has observed the weeks before Easter as a time of penitence and spiritual self-examination.Self examination means looking back at our past deeds analytically."

From the holiday spot website.This site has info, free wallpaper ( see above for one example), colouring in sheets on Ash Wednesday and on other feasts and other "holidays".

We are having a prayer focus for Lent , and the children are learning more Latin prayers - the Anima Christi is one of these.

"Prayer is a 'vital and personal relationship with the living and true God'". - CCC#2558

Off now to workout, drive to and attend a work meeting with the kids in tow, and teach medieval crafts at homeschool Group Learning!
