During Lent, we reflect on Christ’s ministry, death, and resurrection. We slow down, and examine our internal spiritual lives as well as the way we live out our Christian faith in the world.
Our faith teaches us that humans were put on this earth with the responsibility to be stewards. We also know our individual as well as collective U.S. lifestyles have led to serious harm to God’s good Creation.
This compilation of Lenten resources will help individuals take time to learn, reflect, repent, ask God for forgiveness, and take concrete steps to change course.
