Lenten Challenges

Following Jesus… TOGETHER

A Lenten Challenge

We invite you to join us this Lenten season in following the way of Jesus through Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving as a parish.

When:
Beginning March 2nd (Ash Wednesday) through Easter

How:
Prayer – Join our rosary challenge! Perfect for beginners and families too. We’ll also be going through Mary’s Mantle Consecration: A Spiritual Retreat for Heaven’s Help by Christine Watkins. Our parish will offer a Facebook group to follow along. This is a great activity to involve the entire family! Click here to buy the book on Amazon.

Fasting In addition to the traditional fasting from food, there are other creative ways to add to your fast – fast from anger, fast from caffeine, fast from your favorite treat…

Please keep in mind appropriate health measures with any health issues you may have.

Almsgiving – Give back to the community through the Food Pantry, the Poor Box at Church, St. Gianna’s Place, and/or GHB911. The Pelham Food Pantry serves those in Pelham with food insecurity.  The Poor Box supports those who come to the Parish Office in need of emergency assistance.  St. Gianna’s Place is a home in Hudson that that cares for pregnant women in crisis.  GHB911 is a nonprofit group dedicated to helping the homeless in nearby communities, and is currently collecting winter clothing for men and women.
