A Month of Great Lent
This month is entirely made up of Great Lent. If you are still looking for ways to commemorate the fast, check out our extra ideas for fasting. I specifically wrote the article because it can be difficult to decide how to honour the fast while pregnant or nursing, but ideas in the article can be used regardless of dietary restrictions!
If you’re looking for some weekly Lenten reflections, check out our Great Lent Retreat from last year. Also sign up (on the right) for Royal Doors emails for daily readings and reflections!
