Friends,
Happy Lent!
I don’t know about you, but I am grateful for this time to assess where I have wandered from Christ and how I can turn back to him so I can more closely resemble him.
You may be properly organized for your penitential disciplines of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving this Lent. In case you would like to learn more about and join a community in fasting, I want to share Fast As You Can with you.
Catholic nonprofit, Chalice asked me to share a video reflection on fasting from the perspective of woman, mother, and someone who has struggled to fast in the past because of disordered eating.
Fast As You Can offers videos with different perspectives on fasting and invites us to fast for the intentions of ourselves, our loved ones, and the most vulnerable. Click the link and scroll down to register for free to receive a video and reflection each Friday of Lent. Whether you practice intermittent fasting on a regular basis, are just beginning your fasting journey, or have to fast a little differently like me (22 weeks pregnant with our sweet baby boy), I invite you to join the fast as you can.
Christ’s Peace!
Caitlan
