Lenten journey

Season of Lent is upon us.The time of lent is always a time of extra steps to pray, fasting, good deeds...Making an effort to be kind and gentle to others and within family. Some of our lenten traditions are the Strove Tuesday or Pancake day, the preparing phase before it commence. Prepared chocolate pancakes this year.

Following day is the Ash Wednesday and it was the day JY awakening commenced in Shefield.Getting ready for ash and awakening.

Some of the activities during the season is preparing stations of the cross with children and it was great to see colours and prepared booklet.Prepared  the Lenten calendar and both younger ones are very keen to follow small prayers and kind deeds.

Mini stations of the cross frames were made with the help of real life at home blog, incredible and stuck the picture on a thick cardstock and decorated. Theresu and Geo were very enthusiastic to do stations by lighting the candles around the lounge on each stations.

The little ones are quite keen to some lenten art works. Ideas taken from applesandabc. First of all a cross was made with painter's tape and painted with different colours.

Finally it turned out well and Theresu wrote 'I love you Jesus' and it came from her itself and the one next to her is from Geo.
