It's not a tradition that I grew up with. I hope that's okay with you, Pastor Bob!

At the same time, it really has a serious message, too. Thanks so much for sharing it. (I can imagine this story in something like a 'Chicken Soup' book... have you thought of submitting it?)

You have a good question that brings balance to observing Lent: "What aren't you giving up for Lent?"

My husband isn’t well, but when he feels strong enough to be up in the evening, watching TV doesn’t exhaust him. It’s a good day when we can test our wits together on Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. Then we may check out what’s happening in our neighbouring country and we generally watch The National. That is a good evening together in our home.Sharon Espesethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13013272853384312117noreply@blogger.com
