Maritime Conference 2013 Lent Family Ministry Project
Forty Days for Getting Ready
We are
providing young families in our congregation with a resource that
invites families to use the 40 days of Lent to get ready for
the Mystery of Easter. Praying, giving, helping, singing and
learning are ways we get ready. Families have access to a web page on
the Maritime Conference web site offering suggestions for
prayers, activities, actions, and spiritual practices for each
of the forty days of Lent.
