I would definitely be interested in participating, in whatever form it takes. A group blog or LJ community could be another idea to consider, to spread out the work a bit - you could do the weekly posts you're talking about, and others could posts quotes or links or thoughts as well, even if they weren't directly related to your verse of the week. Just a thought.

I've been having trouble with Lent this year - wish I'd known you were sending things out! :) I have been struggling to find a parish that I can be happy with - or at least tolerate - on liturgical, theological, AND social levels; I've definitely been feeling that lack of community you speak of.
