Busted Halo’s online lenten calendar
Lots of resources and links from America
There are a number of wonderful Lenten resources on the internet, including daily reflections. I’ll be updating these from time to time.
From ERD (Episcopal Relief and Development)
From the Church of Ireland: A Lenten study on Economic Justice
From Episcopal Credo: my friend Michael Battle’s daily reflections for Lent
The Daily Office for your computer; and for your smartphone: St. Bede’s Breviary
From the Society of St. John the Evangelist:
Lent Madness from Tim Schenk and Scott Gunn. Here’s their description:
The format is straightforward: 32 saints are placed into a tournament-like single elimination bracket. Each pairing remains open for a set period of time and people vote for their favorite saint. 16 saints make it to the Round of the Saintly Sixteen; eight advance to the Round of the Elate Eight; four make it to the Final Four; two to the Championship; and the winner is awarded the coveted Golden Halo. The first round consists of basic biographical information about each of the 32 saints. Things get a bit more interesting in the subsequent rounds as we offer quotes and quirks, explore legends, and even move into the area of saintly kitsch.
If we could be so bold, we’d like to draw your attention to the Church of Ireland’s ACC-linked Lent study on Economic Justice. It can be perused and downloaded here: http://bibliahibernica.wordpress.com/lent-2012-economic-justice/
