The second Sunday of Lent brings us two versions of Facebook Covers and one image size for use on other social media platforms. As always, share them and share your faith with others!
Then a cloud came, casting a shadow over them; from the cloud came a voice, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him." Mark 9:7 
This new Facebook cover contains images, which to me are a symbolic and interpretive look at the Journey and meaning of Lent.
"We are marked on our journey by the sands of change, time and its thorns. New Life awaits! " --Cyndi Marlow {Tweet This}
Savor the journey!
BONUS ! Here is one of last year's Lenten themed covers redesigned to give it a fresh look!
 This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel Mark 1:15 Here is the first of the 2015 Lenten series of designs. I will be creating a Facebook Cover and a general image sized to share on other social media outlets for each of the weeks of Lent. Be sure to stop by each week. The readings for the first Sunday of Lent (cycle B) can be found here on the USCCB website. I have chosen a line from the Gospel reading for the day:   First Fridays with Francis means an opporunity to share the wisdom of our Holy Father. I have chosen a very recent tweet of his for this months image. Having faith does not mean having no difficulties, but having the strength to face them, knowing we are not alone." - Pope Francis on Twitter 2/5/2015  “It’s Worth Revisiting” Wednesday where I have accepted the invitation of Allison Gingras and Elizabeth Riordan, to re-post one of my favorite articles.

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of our Lenten Journey. It is an opportunity for both repentance and renewal in the life of every Christian. The ashes are physical sign of death (ashes to ashes, dust to dust) as well as a reminder that our life on this earth is short and that our lasting home is in eternity with God. We are reminded that we are to turn away from sin and to follow the Good News of salvation found in Jesus.
Although the images below are light-hearted in nature, they in no way are meant to demean the very profound meaning that is found in the imposition of the ashes. All are encouraged to attend Ash Wednesday services and to partake in this tradition. By receiving ashes and keeping them on the remainder of that day, we make a public proclamation of our intent to die to our worldly desires this Lent and live even more in Christ's image. Wear your ashes proudly. They can be both a deeply personal act of remembrance and as a sign of witness to your faith to the world. Not in a boastful way that says "Look at me and see how holy I am." But in a way that says to others that you have been reminded of where you come from and where you are going. #GetYourAshOn Yet even now, says the LORD, return to me with your whole heart, with fasting, and weeping, and mourning; Rend your hearts, not your garments, and return to the LORD, your God. -Joel 2:12
