As we enter into the season on Lent we are called to pray, fast, and give of our selves a little more. Many of us struggle to find time to slow down and focus on faith as it is, so it is hard for us to imagine doing more. But Jesus shows us that there must always be a time to slow down, a time for spiritual renewal and reflection. This month our pray, learn, and do will all be the same thing to help make it easy for you to focus on making this Lent spiritually refreshing!

The following is a Lenten reflection series called "Encounter Lent". This was put together by the Diocese of Des Moines, not only for use in small faith sharing groups, but for individual reflection. There is one reflection per week of Lent, each with a new topic. I recommend gathering a group of friends, or family to do this together! May you have a blessed and holy Lent.
