When faith communities struggle to create shared sacred seasons

Our church small group decided to observe Lent together this year but everyone chose different practices and now we don't know how to support each other or even talk about what's happening. Some people are fasting, others are adding prayer, and I'm wondering if we're just doing individual things in parallel instead of actually journeying together.
