Lenten Challenges

During Lent, we have been introducing weekly challenges during our Sunday worship. These challenges invite us to be more intentional in the ways in which we interact with one another, with ourselves, and with God. Last week, I forgot to share the first challenge, so I will highlight it here, and then share our challenge for this week.

Lenten Challenge #1

To perform an act of generosity. It could be for a friend, family member or even a stranger.

Lenten Challenge #2

To show gratitude to someone each day. In Particular, to show gratitude to someone you might sometimes not think of. It could be someone you know that you forget to show your appreciation, or a stranger. Also make time to do a gratitude list each day of 3 things from your day that you’re grateful for. Be specific!

Lenten Challenges were written by Sue Browning of St. Andrew’s-Westminster and Littlewood United Churches, Longdon Ont. It was published for use in the Gathering Magazine Lent/Easter 2019, and can be found on page 66-67.
