Happy Fat Tuesday to you!

Pancakes for lunch, madri gras parties, and parades... all that fun stuff culminates tonight because at 12:01am lent begins! Tomorrow inaugurates a time to reflect, be quiet, focus, prepare, wait, watch, read, ponder, pray, and abstain.

Calvary begins our Lent Fitness Challenge. For the leadership team, the challenge has already been a challenge to prepare and coordinate, but we are ready. Hope you are too! Likewise our Lent Devotional begins! The books is published and ready for folks to read. Fantastic stories in there for folks to be renewed by the faithfulness of others.

So, I guess Fat Tuesday means that I can eat all the Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies in the freezer and I don't have to feel guilty about it until tomorrow....ahhh..I am liking this holy day/holiday!
