As we enter the season of Lent, it is a time for reflection and renewal – a time to draw closer to Christ and bring positive change to the world around us. Lent calls for introspection and repentance, urging us to shift our focus from self-gratification to selflessness.
In the spirit of creating a more impactful Lenten experience, consider participating in Greener Lent. This initiative challenges us to weave ecological consciousness into our spiritual journey by committing to daily prayer, stricter fasting, and redirecting the funds saved from reducing meat and cheese consumption toward aiding the less fortunate.
By embracing Greener Lent, we not only honor the call of the Church leaders to care for God's creation but also make a tangible impact in alleviating the environmental crisis that disproportionately affects the most vulnerable communities worldwide. Let us make this Lent a transformative period where our actions echo our commitment to faith, service, and stewardship of the Earth.
