Let me know how it goes.

I have found this to be a very helpful Lent. I gave up alcohol (BIG sacrifice for me, the martini drinker) and have managed to pray the Rosary every single evening.

I also am almost done with Pope Benedict's Jesus of Nazareth which I highly recommend. It is not a book to be rushed as it has quite a few scholarly passages, but I learned several new things about The Lord's Prayer, the apostles, and the differences between the Gospels, as well as a lot of new things about Jesus. It is one of those rare books I will re-read from time to time.
