Mardi Gras RSS
Gearing Up for Mardi Gras and Lent 🎭
Get ready to enjoy the frivolity of Mardi Gras on “Fat Tuesday'' and then take your Vows to Be Better on Ash Wednesday. The 40 days of Lent present a great time for emotional, mental, physical, and of course, spiritual growth. Talk and think about Vows to Do Better and Be Better this week. Share your Vows with your friends and family. Share your plans fully, completely, and unabashedly. You may wind up encouraging another to take a Vow to Do Better and Be Better.
It’s a Whole New Mardi Gras this Year! Happy Yardi Gras!
You just can’t make this stuff up. Seriously! There’s a whole new Mardi Gras this year. It’s called “YARDI GRAS.” Folks are decorating their homes as though they are Mardi Gras floats. The family a few blocks away have made a float about the show, “Schitt’s Creek.”
ASH WEDNESDAY & LENT MADNESS!
On Wednesday, many decide to take a Lenten Vow. It might be giving up candy for 40 days. It might be deciding to say 5 kind things to people every single day for 40 days! Many go to Church and receive ashes on their forehead. This shows the world the person is celebrating and participating in the Lenten Period with a Lenten Vow.
Happy New Year, a QUICK Reminder & A Nice Letter That is Actually Also a Testimonial!
A QUICK REMINDER! For those of you in New Orleans, don’t forget about the Saint Joan of Arc Parade and Fete on January 6th in the French Quarter. It’s a celebration of Joan of Arc, the Maid of Orleans, birthday!
