During Lent the Catholic Church encourages us to try and make room in our lives for God, so as a family this is a great time to set up a prayer space. You may want to do it in the kid's rooms or in the family space.
All you need is a candle, a bible, the prayer guide for Lent (below) or some prayer books. Encourage everyone in your family to take time out each day in prayer by completing the prayer journey (on the activity sheet below.)

There is a video linked below if you want to walk through the stations as a family.
