This is what she is saying as a Catholic, this period is not the appropriate time to participate in something like the Hallelujah Challenge, because Catholics are currently observing Lent, which has a very different spiritual focus.
What is Lent?
In the Catholic Church, Lent is 40 days of prayer, fasting, and repentance that prepare Christians for Easter. It is a solemn and reflective season. Catholics use this time to:
•Fast or give up certain pleasures
•Pray more intentionally
•Reflect on their lives and repent from sin
•Focus on the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus Christ
It is spiritually quiet, serious, and penitential.
While the Hallelujah Challenge on the other hand
It is usually energetic, celebratory, and focused on intense praise, thanksgiving, and joyful worship sessions.
She is pointing out a difference in spiritual tone:
•Lent → solemn, reflective, penitential
•Hallelujah Challenge → loud praise, celebration, high-energy worship
For many Catholics, Lent is not seen as a time for exuberant celebration but rather a time for spiritual discipline and inward reflection. So joining a highly celebratory worship program may feel spiritually inconsistent with the Lenten mood.
The most important point is that in the Catholic church, we don't chant hallelujah doing Lenten season and her post was for Catholics.
No one is trying to discredit hallelujah challenge or attack it.
I have a special kind of respect for 9-5 moms. 🫂🫂
Unending house chores alone can drive one crazy, I really pray that y'all are with men who are kind enough to not leave it all to you.
I can’t wait to be a rich woman so I can wake up one morning and say, “I feel like going to Morocco” or “I want to take that course in Italy” and just do it. No saving for months, no calculating flight prices.
Just me, my passport, and my dreams.
