Habits... I just hit a big milestone, reading for 1,000 consecutive days! I read books on my Kindle (and Kindle app on my phone), and I love that it tracks this... it`s a milestone I`ve had my eye on for a long time.

I was close before, but missed it. I got to 750 and then missed two days while on a mission trip experience with our youth group. So had to start over at 0.

What I like most isn`t the number, but what I`ve gotten out of everything I`ve read. I`ve learned so much, and have been inspired creatively through those books. (If you want to see what I`m reading, hit me up on Goodreads... DM me if you need a link.)

I don`t know what number I`ll hit before I miss another day, but I`m going to keep going because I love what it does for my mind and my soul!

Feelin` that Palm Sunday altar...

And it makes me think about this Sunday we shout "Hosanna," and next Sunday we proclaim "He is risen!" But all of the days in between are filled with such an intense roller coaster ride of events and emotions.

Holy Week has become so much more meaningful to me since I`ve been in the Episcopal Church, and I look forward to each of the services I get to participate in on this crazy journey.

Grateful for a great clergy gathering in @cfdiocese with a fantastic talk from the Rev Dr R Michael Allen on "wholeness."

"If you want to be Christ-centered, you had better pay attention to the whole Christ. To the extent you narrow your Christ, you`ll set yourself and your church up for a search for supplements and substitutes."

Feeling equipped and refreshed... and thankful for such great leadership that puts together events like this for us.

The Stations of the Cross aren`t just a tradition—they`re an invitation to walk with Jesus in His final moments. How do you make this practice meaningful? ✝️

When you pull into your spot in the parking lot, and Bob Seger comes on the radio, and now you`re stuck because you can`t get out until the song is over...

We`re full on into LENT MADNESS!

Our youth have studied the people, made their picks, and we`re following along with the winners (via popular vote at lentmadness.org).

The youth with the best bracket results is going to win a gift card and some serious bragging rights. And Fr. Mark is offering a prize for anyone who beats his bracket.

Super fun, and a great way to get them learning more about our Christian heritage!
