We do the Friday abstinence from Meat, but this year, I'm also trying to say a Rosary each day for a family member, or someone who has asked for my prayers. Sometimes I'll start it at night, when I got to bed, but fall asleep. I just pick up in the morning where I left off. I was even able to finish a Rosary while driving on the Mass Pike, on the way back from dropping our #3 son off at the airport after Spring Break. ;o)

In addition to another family member, or requested intention, I include my hubby, SirKit, with each Rosary. He's almost got an answer figured out on some extremely difficult Math Research, which could be groundbreaking. Could y'all please include him in your prayers? He's been completely focused on this for several months, after playing with it for the last two years, and he feels like he's almost there!

We also take part in the food gift card program for the Family Services group at a neighboring Parish.

SirKit and I will also lead one of the hours of the 24 Hour Rosary for Life, and Eucharistic Adoration, later this week. We have the midnight hour for the night owls.;o)

I prefer DOING things that are helpful to others, during Lent, rather than 'giving things up', which only affects me.

That’s an impressive list. I especially like the 24 hour Rosary for Life.
