Welcome!

The CRLC Faith Formation Blog has been inactive for almost a year.  During that year, I have paid attention to the ministry of Spiritual Direction in other ways.  I have relied less upon technology and more upon direct face to face conversations with many of you.  

Now, as we approach Lent 2015, I welcome you to enter the blogosphere with me.  Some of you may be new to the Faith Formation Blog, others will be readers/posters from the past.  

Regardless, welcome!  You may find it helpful to subscribe to the blog so that you are notified via e-mail whenever something new is posted.   If you want to enter a conversation about a posting, you can do so by posting a comment or contacting me via e-mail with your thoughts (pamelaczarnota@crlcbrecksville.org)

You may have already heard that our theme at CRLC this year for Lent is "Fear".  

At a recent Ministry Board Meeting, Pastor Randy invited us to consider the following two questions:  

"When you think of things in your life, what types of things cause you to fear?"  

"What types of fear can you think of?" 

Now, knowing that most people fear (even cringe at) the idea of "turning to the person on the right and talking about your answer", Pastor Randy encouraged us to simply write down our answers for our own reflection -- But the room was quiet, and the writing implements were in action!  

So, how do YOU answer those two questions?  Let your mind and heart move freely.  There's nothing to fear -- there is no right or wrong or best answer.
