*3/10 - I have added a couple of links to this post since I published it a couple of weeks ago. I will not be updating this blog very often during Lent though. Catholic Exchange has a good article today on Finding time during Lent and cutting back on things like Internet and TV that are time-wasters.
Don't forget, Lent starts this Wednesday for Roman Catholics. There are lots of good resources out there, I listed some of the ones I'll be using here.
In addition, I will be reflecting on the Holy Father's Lenten message, which can be found here.
