Lent, day one (or two...)

I've never known how to count the days. Ah well! I missed being at home for Ash Wednesday...interesting to experience the day internally with my Bethel brothers, many of whom don't really do the whole Lent deal. I really like that I get to expeirence their faith alongside mine, and get to share what we do with them. And staying at Luther helps open those doors...sounds like our kids had a good talk about repentance and did some of that last night at the service; It's great that even at a young age, they are starting to understand not only that we need to be forgiven, that Jesus came for that, and that it's a process they have to engage in! Makes a daddy proud, even 250 miles away!

Blessings to each in your Lenten experience...
