Lent has officially begun for Christians everywhere, and what better way to focus on the Reason for the season than to live it in love.

So I thought I’d try to round up some Lenten resources for you, similar to what fellow Catholic mom, blogger and CatholicConference4Moms presenter Leila has done (you should totally read her post, by the way!). Some of these links go to articles/posts that I’ve written in recent years, others go to my “go-to” sites for anything and everything Catholic:

On Catholic Culture:

Learn all about Lent and everything related to it via Catholic Culture’s Lenten Workshop.

On Catholic Icing:

On CatholicMom.com:

You’re probably familiar with decorating for occasions like Christmas and Easter but have you ever tried decorating for Lent? Try it — read this for a few ideas. You can also check out this extensive list of Lenten activities for children for ideas that you can incorporate into your family routines this Lent. Or read everything Lent-related on the site, if you have the time. 😉

Of course, we can’t go through this season without remembering to keep love in Lent, so I also invite you to check out past posts about how a bunch of us bloggers do this here and here.

Here’s to a meaningful and blessed Lent for us all!
