Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I found a wonderful idea on this board (can't remember where)for the putting the word PREPARE on my mantle for Advent. What word would be good for Lent? I could use PREPARE again, but I feel the need for something different like REPENT, SACRIFICE, ect. Any ideas?

Ours is NOW

I have a NOW Cross I use on the mantle (painted on a piece of wood) and on a tile I painted.

NOW Cross.

It's based on the first reading from St. Paul on Ash Wednesday.

I don't have time for pictures, but will try to post them when I can.

I've seen people use "Repent."

I'm thinking Conversion this seems to what He is always calling me during this time of yr. and probably as a family we are to focus on is working on change . I love lent so much more than new years resolutions how He gives us time to focus work on our hard stuff , cleanse and truely achieve realistic goals .I prayed to Our Lord this may be a yr. of conversion for us .
