Anyone Else
loving the Lenten Catechesis in Treasury of Daily Prayer? I thought it was particularly fitting on this ember day (traditional days for ordination in the Western Church and also a day when prayer is made for crops), that our Catechesis on the 4th commandment reminded of the honor due to our spiritual fathers and that the NT reading was our Lord's parable of the Sower and the Seed! For more on Ember Days, see page 21 of the Treasury.

Amen and amen! I savored it all this morning while praying Matins on the way to work (er, using public transit, be assured!)
I've only had my TDP for a short time and yet now can't imagine being without it!

It's something that surprised me because I hadn't checked how lent would be done until Lent started - it is actually a very nice addition to the daily routine. Very well done.
