Hi all I added a few of my favorite links at the bottom of the page. One for Ebates and another for a blog called Seraphic Singles. If you are shopping online, Ebates is way to earn a few dollars. I have earned $18 myself and it went straight into my book budget. If you go to ebates through this *link* I can earn a few for dollars for referring you. My oldest nephew is receiving his first confession this week. I am so excited for him as the Sacrament of Reconciliation is one of the greatest gifts we have been given. If you could offer up a prayer for him this week that would be appreciated. In 2005 I was able to visit Lourdes, France on my way home form World Youth Day in Cologne. They have a separate building just for hearing confessions and they offer as many languages as possible. Although I had gone to confession earlier that week in Germany I felt drawn to go to confession again. Some of the people I traveled with thought that it was weird since I had gone to confession so recently. The best thing besides receiving the sacrament myself is that it encouraged someone else who had not gone to confession in a long time. I remember hearing that Blessed John Paul II went to confession daily. If he felt the need to go daily how much more am I called to receive the sacrament regularly so that I might grow closer to God as Bl JPII did. Well I hope your Lent is going well.
May God grant you the grace to grow closer to Him daily,
Nina
