The Divine Mercy Challenge for Lent
The parish I attend for Sunday Mass, St. Mary's in E DBQ, along with Nativity BVM are participating in a special Divine Mercy Challenge this Lent.
This challenge asks 3 things of those who participate:
1. Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet every day.
2. Make a good humble Confession during the 40 days of Lent.
3. Attend at least one additional Mass each week
The challenge begins today & extends until Divine Mercy Sunday (7 April 2013)
Often we think of what to give up for Lent. & that is a good thing to do. But Lent is also a time for setting aside extra time for prayer & penance as well. This challenge is an excellent way to do so.
For more info on the Divine Mercy you can go to the Marians of the Immaculate Conception website.

Nice challenge. I recommended adding the Divine Mercy Novena beginning on Good Friday to the Saturday after Easter, then going to mass on Divine Mercy Sunday.

Nice challenge. I recommend doing the Divine Mercy Novena beginning Good Friday and ending the Saturday after Easter. Attending the following Sunday (Divine Mercy Sunday) is also highly recommended.
