So, I know that last thread went in a not-so-good direction, here's hoping I don't start that up again...
Anyway, someone just gave me a link to this website with FAQs, links, and suggestions. It looks like a great resource, and if you're still looking for ideas for what to do for Lent this year, it has a really good list of suggestions, for each category (prayer, almsgiving, and fasting). I'll probably steal an idea or a couple from that list...
