40 days of prayer, simplicity and generosity 

22 February – 6 April 2023 

Our world is hurting. Ongoing conflicts, rising poverty and hunger, climate crisis...

We want to make a difference, but it can be hard to know where to start. 

Lent is an opportunity to train our hearts towards compassion, generosity and loving our neighbours. 

To focus on what each of us can do to make a difference. 

Join us for 40 days of prayer, simplicity and generosity for our hurting world.
