Greetings in Christ!
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it! Let us rejoice in a break from the snowfall, and let us be glad for the (slightly) warmer temperatures that are forecast for the next couple of days, so that we can clean things up a bit! And let us be truly thankful for all those who worked so hard to keep us moving safely. The road crews for the cities and counties deserve our thanks and praise for all their hard work, as do the men and women with snowplows and snowblowers who helped so many of us out over the past several days!
We are now fully into the season of Lent, and so we’re going to ask; how are you doing with the early days of reflection and preparation? What steps have you taken to sharpen your focus on the Divine? If you’re still sorting things out, that’s perfectly fine – it can take a bit of time to put a plan into place. But please do consider putting a plan into place for these forty days that we have been blessed with. Lent is a rare opportunity to think deeply and to pray earnestly about the way we’re approaching our faith, and to seek guidance for ways to make changes so that you can draw closer to God and walk more consistently with Jesus Christ. We don’t often get such a precious gift, and it would be a shame to waste it. If you’re well into your Lenten practice(s), that’s great! We wish you all success! If you’re still planning, we wish you all success! Blessings in this holy season of Lent; may these days bring great joy, great learning, and great growth in your faith!
Blessings, Karen and Greg

Because we are united with Christ, we can come near to God. We are not afraid to do that. We can be sure that God will accept us, because we trust in Christ. Ephesians 3:12
