I have always loved the tradition of the ashes :) even though I don’t practice anymore, I’ve always found something really beautiful in it

I am slowly dipping my toes into the waters of Lent, after being raised in a very non-denominational Evangelical home. This was a helpful read for me!

What a great read. Thanks for sharing! I'm planning on spending Lent reading the catechism. I'm hoping to convert to catholicism next year, and I'm laying the foundation now. I've committed to spending 30 minutes a day with God, praying, reading scripture, reading the catechism, and learning more about the saints. Obviously, 30 minutes isn't all of it; God is always there. But I've decided I need to make more space for focused, uninterrupted time devoted to God.
