This week, in the aftermath of the Oscars, join Tim and Scott on the purple carpet as the world prepares for Lent Madness 2020. Despite being snubbed (again!) for Best Lenten-Themed Movie, the Supreme Executive Committee reminds viewers that, contrary to appearances, Lent Madness is, like grace, FREE. They also answer viewer mail and recount the early days of Ye Olde Lent Madness. All that, and more, in this week’s episode of Monday Madness.
Today is the last day for you to order stuff from the Lentorium — or from our sponsors at Forward Movement — and pay the cheapest shipping rate with guaranteed Lenten delivery. So if you want to buy stuff, it’s time to get your very own giant bracket poster or Saintly Scorecard (single copy, bulk copies for savings, or ebook for your favorite Kindle device). Scorecards are as low as a buck each, and the bracket poster is only $10 if you buy two or more. Visit the Lentorium to see the full range of merchandise, including Golden Halo winner mugs.
By the way, if you’re antsy while you wait for Lent to start, don’t forget to binge-watch the entire oeuvre of Monday Madness over at LentMadnessTV.
This is here to help with social media sharing. Never mind.
“Today is the last day for you to order stuff from the Lentorium … and pay the cheapest shipping rate with guaranteed Lenten delivery.”
I would just like to point out that delivery is never actually “guaranteed”. There is some reliance on the vagaries of the Postal Service.
Where can we pick up lenten items, we live in Cincinnati and mentor efm in Covington ky.
We don’t keep much stock in the office (most is at our warehouse), but if you call us at 800 543-1813 or 513 721-6659 we can check whether we have what you want. Thank you!
I haven’t received my “giant” posters yet?
This year, I am inviting my mother to play. Brace yourselves.
Our parish is doing Lent Madness together – and also reading your book, Tim, “Dust Bunnies in the Basket:Finding God in Lent & Easter” We will have a discussion at coffee hour each Sunday on the book. We are a tiny parish but enthusiastic! They had never done Lent Madness before.
Excellent! Let us know how it all goes.
For those of us with gifts of encouragement, some suggestions for cheerleading practice borrowing from Bishop Curry’s Way of Love Template?
Let’s learn, let’s learn! Clap, clap, clap. clap. clap.
P-r-a-y! Pray!
Woooorrrrrrshiiiip!
Bless! Bless! Bless! Bless! stomp. stomp. stomp. stomp (while laying on of hands).
Let’s Go! Let’s Go!
Rest? hmmm…surely a more contemplative cheer…sharing the silence…
I’ll be waving my Lent Madness, java ridden cup as a Pom Pom.
Poking around the Lent Madness website, because it’s not Lent yet, and I find that the Celebrity Bloggers, at least, have found a Tardis and are going to write for Lent Madness 2030!!! Well and good, but what are we to do for the decade before then?!
Can anyone remind me of the phrase associated with Constance and Companions who died in the yellow fever epidemic.
