Lent has begun! If you are interested in doing some specific reflections through the Lent season, here are two options:A booklet by Henri Nouwen which is excerpted from his book entitled "Bread for the Journey" (click on the picture to see info about the book). Read the booklet here.
Rick Wukasch has also put together some reflections stemming from the Earthkeeping course. Read the booklet here with attached song lyrics.
The Earthkeeping exercises for week two can be read here.

Lenten Reflections | From Spring and Nouwen

Lent is upon us...
The season of Lent which precedes Easter begins tomorrow (I think!) [correction: it begins Thursday - read Cheryl's explanation by clicking on comments]. If you are interested in reading more about Lent, check out the "Lent" entry in the Catholic Encyclopedia.
Typically, the Sabbath day is a day 'off' from whatever you are fasting from throughout Lent. If you consider Sunday your Sabbath, we would love to provide whatever you are fasting from! For example, if you are fasting from chocolate for Lent, it would be great to have chocolate for snacks at TILT for your Sabbath enjoyment! So, either post a comment here or let us know at TILT!
Spring Garden will also have a labyrinth walk available for public use throughout the Lent season. Read a bit about labyrinths here. Here are the weekly days, times and locations:
