Arkansas Catholic Directory Photo Contest Arkansas Catholic is holding a contest to choose a photo for
the cover of the 2018 diocesan directory. Any professional or amateur photographer in Arkansas can enter their photo of the inside or outside of a Catholic church or institution in the diocese. For complete rules and an entry form, visit the Arkansas Catholic website at www.arkansas-catholic.org.
Technology + Lent = Lentsanity Free App from the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS); available for both iOS and Android I discovered the Lentsanity app last year and found myself enjoying, once again, the fact that there is younger crowd of creative people who think of these things. I mean, the name alone reflects a bit of how I feel about Lent: slightly insane, intimidated, and excited-ish. The idea: daily thoughts and resources to aid your Lenten journey. They’re categorized as prayer, #Lenthacks, virtue, sacrifices, learn the faith, and faith in action. You’ll find Lenten recipes as well as cool graphics you can share across your social networks. Maybe one of the best features, for those of us who may not be meatless already on Fridays: you get a notification before lunch and dinner on Fridays from “the Meat Police” to remind you not to eat meat.
