Lent is a time of repentence and renewal. It is a 40 day journey through the Passion of Jesus Christ, leading up to His resurrection on Easter Sunday.
Throughout this Lenten journey, we invite you to join us for any and all events, activities and devotions, whether they take place at Christ the King or in your own home.

Fasting
Minimum expectations for Catholics
- On Ash Wednesday we are to fast by eating only one full meal; the other two should not equal a second meal. We eat nothing between meals. This law binds Catholic from the day after their eighteenth birthday up until the conclusion of their fifty-ninth birthday.
- On all Fridays of Lent we abstain from meat. This law applies to all who have completed their fourteenth birthday, and continues throughout one’s life.
- Those who do not enjoy good health may be dispensed from these observances.
- Both these laws also apply to Good Friday, and they are recommended for Holy Saturday. These practice bind Catholics in a common but relatively small effort.
If you are able, you may fast and abstain beyond the minimum. Jesus, Moses, and Elijah each fasted for forty days. Makes some good decisions about what and when you will eat and drink for the next 40 days.
Make time for prayer and good works by abstaining from distractions and entertainments.

Almsgiving (Acts of Charity)
Time
How can you give your time as an act of charity? Can you help keep your house and neighborhood tidy? Can you introduce yourself to someone new at church each week? Can you write a complimentary note to a friend or family member? If you are a parent or godparent, can you spend some quality spiritual time with your children and godchildren? Do you keep in touch with your parish community, your neighborhood community?
Talent
With what skills has God endowed you? How do you put your abilities and talents to use in your home, neighborhood, parish, and civic community?
Treasure
How do you share your treasure? The Bible recommends tithing, a contribution of ten percent to charity. What would ten percent of your gross income be? How close to that figure is your giving? Who benefits from your generosity? Could you live on less if it meant helping someone in need? Are you keeping up with your pledge to your parish? What other donations can you make to charity?
