Lent is a special time of preparation for Easter and the risen Savior. In order to prepare, I'm always seeking suggestions; particularly for family devotions.
Amy Welborn just pointed out this website containing detailed information on Lent and appropriate practices. The website was created by Women for Faith and Family and is a very detaile resource for Ash Wednesday, Lent, and Holy Week. Take some time and read through the articles - I'm sure you'll come away with some great ideas to make this Lent special.
One thing I learned: pretzels were designed to symbolize prayer and fasting during Lent: they are designed in the form of folded arms in prayer and made of only flour, water and salt.
God bless,
Jay
