The posts on this site for Lent each contain a reflection, questions for journaling, a writing exercise, and creative arts activities. Because we are called to be creators in our Creator’s image, prayer can include forms of art in addition to writing. The “creative arts activities” are broken down into three categories, fabric, paper, and “home” arts. “Home arts” relate to activities that involve family, home, and community. I hope these categories are broad enough and flexible enough to be adapted to any preferred medium.
Because many ideas for writing and creating to pray are posted here, feel free to do any, all, some, a bit of this, and a bit of that. A few weeks you may do several exercises or activities and other weeks you may just reflect on the questions.
I pray that Lent will be spiritually fruitful and inspirational for each of you reading this, leading you to a greater love and intimacy with the Lord.
God bless, Marilyn
