Easter... It's almost here...

Lenten Blog #1 - How's the Lenten journey? What are you doing for your Christian service? How are you giving of your time? Tell me what you are doing for Lent in a blog response on kidblog.org.

Remember you need to do 4 hours of service for Lent... due before Easter. If you lost your forms, you will have to scroll down on this home page to find the Lenten service forms which you can download and print off.

Lenten Blog #2 - How can you "warm" others through your actions and words? How can you build up the self esteem in others through your actions? What can you do to spread kindness? Why do we need to take a little time to think about this?

In addition to blogging to the questions above, find something "techy" that connects to this blog prompt in warming others... it can be a wordle, video, website link... voki.com avatar... whatever, try to surprise me with your "techy find". Briefly explain how this "techy find" connects to the theme of creating "warmth through words".

ALMSGIVING...


Remember to make your almsgiving donation to Holychildhood Association... This week you were supposed to make a donation based on what you would spend on clothing.

FAST FROM SOMETHING THAT WILL HELP THE WORLD... 
You know my rant about fasting... choose to fast then give... Remember if you give up a certain food, give that money you would normally spend on the food and donate it to those in need...


OR... "FAST FROM NASTINESS..."
Do you have a problem with sarcasm? Are you quick to comment or pass judgment... (Hee, hee... I have noooo idea where these ideas are coming from.... er... ummm....) Well, why not try fasting from the "nasties"... concentrate on saying kind things... or learning how to apologize if you slip into old habits and say something unkind.... 


Help the world or at least those around you with your fasting efforts!
