Good jog!! They look beautiful! I am still not done, but I still have a few days at least. We are taking this week off from school work for holy week. Maybe I can squeeze a few more in. thanks for posting all of them for me to have something to copy! I would have been lost with out your posts on this, that’s for sure.
Jessica,
Thank you SO MUCH for posting your pictures and scripture readings for this Lenten project!!! My kids and I have thoroughly enjoyed doing this together–it has made learning about Lent such a wonderful experience. May God richly bless you and your family!

Oh, my, what a find this is!!! I was doing a google search to find pictures for our Good Friday dinner (based on Alice at Cottage Blessings’ Liturgical Tea for Good Friday) when I happened on your site.
You have a new fan!!!
I had left our Jesse Tree up for Lent, and put little pictures from the stations of the Cross on it, but what a wonderful idea this is–I will definitely save this series of posts for next year! How talented you are, your symbols are beautiful. I wish I had seen your site 6 weeks ago!! 🙂
Warmly,
Eileen
I am so glad I found this! I will be following the scripture reading you suggest starting on Ash Wednesday with my 3.5 year old. I feel this has given me a lot of direction for lent. Thank you.
