We are not meant to cling to material things

Just a few thoughts

·       Two things that could measure who we are: The way we manage when we have nothing and the way we behave when we have everything. – Anon

·       May we grasp this “privileged moment” of Lent and by our prayer, fasting and sacrifices open our hearts to the gift of Hope

·       We pray for community workers reaching out to disaffected young people, that they will gain their trust and succeed in diverting them from the path of radicalisation and crime

Reflections

ü Let us strive to use this Lenten season in a really constructive and productive way.

ü What is going to happen to me when I die?

ü The Glorious Way – Ash Wednesday reflection

The Signs Of The Times

Ø World ignoring the ‘common good’, archbishop says

Ø Caritas Australia is a wonderful charity. During Lent It has a program called Project Compassion. By fasting people save money each day to donate to Project Compassion. It helps people all around the world to break free from poverty and improve their lives. Caritas also has created a slideshow called  The Way Of The Cross that is highly recommended
