"The Good News is no mere matter of words....it is about leaving ourselves behind and enountering others." Pope Francis
I hope you are participating in the CRS Rice Bowl faith-in-action program. This program invites us to encounter anew ourselves, our neighbors and our God.
Please consider these suggestions in shaping your own family's Lenten plan:
• As a family, read the Stories of Hope and daily reflections to inspire your Lenten journey—and guide your Lenten almsgiving.
• Prepare simple meatless meals on Fridays throughout Lent, in solidarity with our brothers and sisters around the world. Here is a link to those recipes, http://www.crsricebowl.org/recipe
Be sure to visit crsricebowl.org to watch videos of the people and communities your Lenten gifts are changing through CRS Rice Bowl. We will be collecting your CRS Rice Bowls at the end of Lent.
