The great season of Lent is here. It is a forty-day period of preparation for the great feast of Easter. As such, all adults and older children, who are blessed with good health, must fast from meat and daily products on the first day of Lent and on Good Friday. In addition, no meat is permitted on all Fridays of Lent.
Young children are not required to fast in this way, but abstaining from certain foods that are particularly satisfying, may be something that you would endorse as their parent.
The following Lenten activity, that I have developed for your family's use, encourages a focus on prayer and character development through the intentional practice of following the Ten Commandments.
Once a week, over the course of the next six weeks, click on the links below and travel the Road to the Resurrection. See what you can do to bring these Commandments to life in your home.
Good journey!
