Lenten Almsgiving
Pray. Fast. Share a glass.
Water for Life
And whoever gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones in the name of a disciple - truly I tell you, none of these will lose their reward." (Matthew 10:42)
The Lenten Season is a time of sacrifice, almsgiving, and prayer in preparation for our renewal at Easter. Join us in our parish Lenten Almsgiving Drive – Water for Life with Cross Catholic Outreach. Our parish Water for Life drive helps provide families in sub-Saharan Africa with clean drinking water.
Cross Catholic Outreach
"Cross Catholic Outreach is working with dioceses, priests and various ministries in Africa to transform the lives of nearly 600,000 people. Your generosity is needed to provide 197 water and sanitation systems in remote villages.
Since 2003, Cross Catholic Outreach has led life-changing poverty relief efforts in Africa. And since 2019, new water and sanitation systems have transformed the lives of more than 1.2 million people, mostly young girls and women who collect water and their families.
Please share the light of Christ this Lent by helping us continue building wells and blessing generations of African families. Together, we can give the transformative gift of water, setting girls, women and families free from the cycle of thirst and bringing greater glory to God!" - from Cross Catholic Outreach
