Lent and baptism


- is Lent all about eating gruel? :)

There I found a short video on Lent with Fr. Greg Friedman, O.F.M. who tells how the Vatican II Council looked back to the origins of Lent and saw it as a preparation for baptism. It reminded me of my RCIA journey. For those interested, here's the video ....
