February 29, 2012 -- First Wednesday of Lent

Saints and Feasts:
Righteous John Cassian the Confessor

Readings:
Isaiah 2:3-11
Genesis 1:24-2:3
Proverbs 2:1-22

To ponder and meditate on:
"Do not be ashamed to enter the Church to confess. Be ashamed when you sin but not when you repent." - St. John Chrysostom

Challenge:
Abstain from food after lunch. Go to the Liturgy of Pre-Sanctified Gifts at your church and receive Holy Communion. Talk only when necessary today, especially in preparation for receiving the Body and Blood of Christ.
