Lenten Resources

To: Social Ministry and Rice Bowl Contacts
From: Your Missions Office

Put faith in action by loving your neighbor in your own back yard and on the other side of the globe. Participate in the CRS Rice Bowl Lenten program in your parish, community and home. Look for the Catholic Relief Services Collection in your parish the weekend of March 9-10^th—this is the only collection that provides core funding for CRS’ work around the world as well as for five other (inter)national Catholic programs. We hope you will enjoy these resources and share them with others!

During Lent, USCCB and Catholic Relief Services are partnering to offer weekly Lenten reflections. The first three reflections focus on 40 Days to Deepen Our Faith (Ash Wednesday), Journey Through the Desert (Week 1), and A Miraculous Vision (Week 2). The entire Lenten series is available here.Resources from the USCCB Department of Justice, Peace and Human Development (JPHD) are also a weekly feature on the USCCB Lent page throughout this holy season. You can also take action during Lent by signing up to be part of Catholics Confront Global Poverty.

Additionally, you can find a list of Lenten resources on the Missions Office website, including a Lenten litany.

As always, thank you for all you do to spread the news about the Church's social mission and solidarity with our neighbors.
