Instructions

Choose one option or do both


Option #1 Calendar:

Click here & you will find the PDF that can be printed or used as a guide to create a calendar for Lent. If you do not have access to a printer. Create one from scratch using the PDF. We are children to colour & add the titles to their very own calendar. They can take a look at the example to get guidance. 

The important thing is that families & children learn about Lent. It Is a nice way to countdown to Easter Sunday. 


Option #2 Lenten Planning 

Lent is a time where we are called to refocus & grow closer to God. Here is an exercise that can be done as a family to decide how you will live Lent.
