Frequently Asked Questions
What do you offer for Catholic Lent?
Our Into the Desert Lenten Mug, the Lent & Easter Catholic Coloring Book, our Stations of the Cross For Kids, and the Kids Stations of the Cross Pray-Along audio all help a family enter the season.
How can a family observe Lent with your products?
Pray the Stations with our Stations of the Cross For Kids or the Pray-Along audio, color through the Lent & Easter Coloring Book, and keep the Into the Desert Lenten Mug for morning prayer.
What's a good Lent resource for kids?
Our Stations of the Cross For Kids and the Kids Stations of the Cross Pray-Along audio engage children with Christ's Passion, and the Lent & Easter Coloring Book follows the season.
How is Lent different from the rest of the year?
Lent is the penitential season of preparation for Easter - prayer, fasting and almsgiving over forty days. Our Lenten pieces keep that focus front and center.
Will a Lent item arrive in time?
Coloring books and the Stations book usually ship in 1–3 days; the made-to-order Lenten mug takes up to 10 days. Order ahead of Ash Wednesday.
What is the Catholic tradition of Lent?
Lent runs the forty days from Ash Wednesday to the Easter Triduum, and is kept through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Many families mark it at home with the Stations of the Cross, a Lenten coloring book or a table runner that changes with the season.
What is forbidden during Lent?
Catholics abstain from meat on Ash Wednesday and all Fridays of Lent, and fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. Many people also give something up voluntarily for the whole season.
What are the Catholic rules for Lent?
Fasting on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday applies to adults from 18 to 59; abstaining from meat on those days and every Friday of Lent applies from age 14. Beyond that, the season is shaped by prayer, fasting and almsgiving.
What are the three requirements of Lent?
Prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Everything else in the season - the Stations, the coloring books, the purple on the table - grows out of those three.
