Lent Event Resources
Inspiring resources for a season of prayer, simplicity and generosity.
Lent Event 2023 Prayer Guide
We asked our church partners from around the world how we can support them in prayer over the season of Lent.
Their responses allow us to pray in solidarity, but also to learn about their struggles and what they long to see in their communities.
Through this journey, we hope you feel more connected to the global body of Christ and how God is moving through it.
