Ash Wednesday - How do I feel about Lent? How does Lent affect me? When I listen to people talk about Lent, do I feel like what they are saying has anything to do with me?  With my life?  Why?  Why not?


First Sunday of Lent - Do something special for yourself.  What did you do?  How did this make you feel?
         
Monday - Take five to fifteen minutes and do nothing -    hear, see, think, do nothing.  Just relax and let the world disappear.  Then write something good about yourself.

Tuesday - Read Leviticus 19:1-18 - Choose one (1)   verse, Copy the verse neatly on your paper. Reflect
