✝️ Lent 2025 🤍 💫 The Lenten period has officially started. Yesterday was Ash Wednesday, which means that we are 40 days away from Easter. Ash Wednesday is a solemn reminder of human mortality and the need for reconciliation with God and marks the beginning of the penitential Lenten season. There are three pillars of Lent - fasting, prayer, and almsgiving. What does it look like? We are encouraged to fast from something, devote more time to prayer, and do good deeds. For the next 40 days, try to give up something you enjoy to grow closer to God. It can be Netflix, soda, sweets, coffee, or music, to name a few. You can change up your prayer routine by praying over certain passage in the Bible, sitting still in quietness and listening to God, or praying with a friend. For almsgiving, you can commit to volunteering once a week, inviting a friend for coffee, or simply helping strangers in need. Remember, you do not have to do it all. The purpose of Lent is to grow closer to God, get to know Him better, and prepare ourselves for the resurrection of Christ. 🌾 “God, may Your light guide my day, and your spirit bring me peace. Amen.“ 🙏🏻 #WISDOM #together #FCA #unity #united #family #sisterhood #brotherhood #faith #god #jesus #members #church #gospel #prayer #scripture #verses #fellowship #worship #christianity #sports #audienceofone #ministry #Lent #Lent2025 #AshWednesday #Easter

🕯️🌟 Happy Second Advent ✝️🎄 Today we celebrate the second advent of this Christmas season. We are one week closer to the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. 💫 Take some time today to reflect on your preparation for Christmas. Are you focused on earthly things or Godly things? Who rules your choices and thoughts? There is still time to give December to Jesus. As the journey of Advent continues, as we prepare to celebrate the nativity of Christ, John the Baptist’s call to conversion sounds out in our communities. It is a pressing invitation to open our hearts and to welcome the Son of God who comes among us. ⭐️✝️ #WISDOM #together #FCA #unity #united #family #sisterhood #brotherhood #faith #god #jesus #members #church #gospel #prayer #scripture #verses #fellowship #worship #christianity #sports #audienceofone #advent #christmas #festiveseason

✈️ Where does a Polish girl go when she has a few days to travel? 🧳 Every season there are a few opportunities to travel and I love to make the most of it. I bought a book about 5 years ago called “501 Places to See Before You Die” and I have made the locations in the book a sort of bucket list. In my most recent break I traveled to Portugal to see 4 of the destinations and visit my “little sister” Michelle as she is playing there. My travel is very quick, slightly random, full of adventures, and my stops are usually based on restaurants that locals recommend. When I travel I do not like to go to tourist traps or do things I am comfy doing. I enjoy seeing a country as the locals experience it on a regular basis. I also enjoy traveling alone. I made a pact with myself that being alone would not deter me from seeing the world. In other words, if no one is available or wanting to travel with me, I have no issues going out on my own and seeing all the wonders of the world. ☺️ 🇵🇹 So, what did I do and where did I go in Portugal? 🌉 Lisbon— took an electric bike tour of the city with a local guide and some other tourists. I ate typical Portuguese food which was a creamy, potato and cod baked dish. Then followed it up with a dessert of the famous pastel de nata. ⛪️ Evora— hired a local man to give me a tour and historical background of the walled city. Portugal has so much diverse history and I learned a lot on this tour. 🌊 Albufeira— a small southern city with great beaches where I got to see my friend play in a game. 🌇 Porto— (where the photo is taken) I took a boat cruise on the river to see the famous 6 bridges. Then took a night walk in the city to see the streets and culture of a night in Porto. Then ended the evening with a dinner on the river looking at this beautiful bridge. 🏰 Pena Palace— the last stop on my trip was a palace situated outside of Lisbon on a VERY high hill that was used for many years by royal families. The outlook, colors, and architecture were spectacular. #TravelPoland #VisitPoland #PolishBasketball #PolandTravel #WISDOM #Ministry #Faith #Jesus #FCA #Basketball #God #Prayer #Group #Church

🏀 What does a Polish basketball player do with her dog? 🐶 👋🏻 Hello again! I have been getting a lot of questions about Amos, my 6 (almost 7) year old dog. Well here is a post all about him. He is a cockapoo — mom is a cocker spaniel & dad is a mini poodle. He was born in Nebraska at Old River Puppy Ranch and I picked him up in May of 2018. Ever since then he has been with me EVERYWHERE I have played and traveled. 🌍 🐕 This little guy has touched his paws all over Poland, Germany, Denmark, Czech Republic, and Austria. Every place he goes, he makes people smile and gives them lots of love. He has been through training to be a therapy dog and every teammate that has been on a team with me and met him has in some way or another benefitted from snuggles with Amos. He is great with kids and many kids with a fear of dogs have met Amos and he has helped them to understand that dogs can be very nice and fun to be around. On road trips he gets to stay with some amazing people who love him dearly. I have a few families on rotation to watch him when we leave town. Each family has different fun things to do when he goes over. With one they often go on long walks in the forest hunting for mushrooms. With another family the kids love to play with him in the big yard of their house. With another one he has a dog to play with constantly. When we are in Gdynia he loves to go to the beach and for long walks in the forest behind our house. 🌲🐾 #TravelPoland #VisitPoland #PolishBasketball #PolandTravel #WISDOM #Ministry #Sisterhood #Brotherhood #Together #Worship #Faith #God #Jesus #Church #Prayer #Bible #Fellowship #Sports #AudienceOfOne
