Lenten Resolutions

Just a quick note - but this year for Lent instead of giving up something that might not make you suffer much or that God might not care about whether or not you do, try doing some penance in the form of outreach.  Do a ministry of some sort to the poor - maybe volunteer at a soup kitchen once a week or even just do some kind of spiritual ministry.  Then you can really make some waves in the world as a Catholic.
