Dear Friends

The Lenten journey, preparing us for our 2010 encounter with Jesus of the cross and the grave, has begun! The Ash Wednesday call was to use Lent to address the secrets we keep in a way that God can bring healing to us and to others.

Around the dinner table before Lent, my children informed me that fizzy drinks, chocolates and Play Station are on the "what we cut out list" for Lent. May whatever is on your list; raise your awareness not only of lurking temptations but also of God's presence in the face of those temptations.
