O'Boyle, Donna-Marie Cooper
Books > Lent & Easter > Lent & Easter General
This daily guide for families draws from the wisdom of Mother Teresa, showing parents and children alike how to put her words into practice and "do small things with great love." While most Lenten booklets focus on individual or small groups, this booklet is for families. Bringing Lent Home with Mother Teresa provides the resources a parent needs to gather the family together for a time of prayer and conversation, including a quotation from Mother Teresa and a story about her life. The booklet also offers practical suggestions on how to put into practice each day the threefold call of Lent; to fast, pray, and give alms or care for the poor. Parents can engage in their own daily prayer by using the Reflection for Parents included in each day.

Brand, Hilary
Books > Lent & Easter > Lent & Easter General
Based on the Oscar winning film ‘The King’s Speech’, this is the Lent course to help you find your authentic identity and voice in Christ. 'Finding A Voice’ brings together words from the Bible, the story and characters from the movie and the fears that can drive us to withdraw from everyday life.
Starting with sequences from the multi Oscar and BAFTA winning movie, ‘Finding a Voice’ explores the ways in which, like Colin Firth’s ‘Bertie’, we too can face up and overcome our terrors to find our true and authentic self. A short introduction begins each film related Bible meditation with notes, discussion points and further Bible passages provided for reflection through the week.
Hilary Brand's imaginative approach includes suggestions for an after-Lent follow-up and full notes for leaders. Each of the five sections of the course is adaptable to private devotion or weekly group engagement.
