Lent Resources
For Anyone/ Couples
Magnificat Lenten Companion
Many years ago, my mom bought my siblings and me a subscription to Magnificat that she renews for each of us every year. This has been such an amazing source of daily spiritual reading. I'm looking forward to using Magnificat's Lenten Companion this Lent.
Living with Less
The Little Way of Living with Lessis a spiritual journey guided by St. Thérèse of Lisieux toward a “less is more” manner of living. It shares one couple’s effort to downsize, declutter, and detach ― and the challenge of growing in virtues that is associated with this process. Indeed, this book serves as a practical antidote to the consumerism and commodification of daily home life today.
40 Days at the Foot of the Cross: A Gaze of Love from the Heart of Our Blessed Mother
For Her
Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary
"There are a few spiritual books that every Catholic family should have in their “spiritual arsenal” and this is one of them. Around since the 8th century, this book has been hated by heretics, despised by the Devil, loved by friends of Our Lady, and recited by the greatest of saints including Saints John Damascene, Catherine of Siena, Vincent Ferrer, Louis of France, Bridget of Sweden, and many, many more."
Restore: A Guided Lent Journal for Prayer and Meditation
I used this resource last year and it was wonderful.
Anything written by Sr. Miriam is guaranteed to draw you closer to the heart of Christ and invite you to a deeper encounter with Him.

Lent is a great time to begin a daily devotional that we can carry into our prayer lives after the Lenten season. Here's a daily devotional option for mothers to bring about peace amidst the sometimes overwhelming duties our vocation calls us to.

Rosary for Kids
This Lent we'll be trying to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet with the kids on our daily family walk.
Lent is a great time to start praying as a family, the Rosary or the Divine Mercy Chaplet can be a great place to start. To help with this new family activity you can buy your child their own rosary.
