It’s been a decade now of doing the Lent project. What started as me wondering how not eating chocolate made me a better wife, parent, friend, daughter, niece, sister, or coworker. And I started a daily meditation and reflection on what I could do to incorporate the tenets of pray-tithe-fast into my life in ways that felt meaningful. So a decade on I’ve gone from a downloaded-from-the-internets ideas sheet to my own blog with my more thoughtful, more meaningful reflections. Welcome to those who are new to the process – you don’t have to be an RC kid to participate. Your mileage may vary.
