REVERSE LENTEN CALENDAR
The M6:8 Outreach Committee would like to invite you to participate in The Reverse Lenten project.
Typically some religions “give up” something for Lent. This year from February 18 through April 4, we encourage you to collect 1 food item per day, and we will disperse to those in need. You may collect 1 item, all items, work individually, in groups, teams, or families.
Every effort and donation makes a difference. You may use the calendar provided above as guidance, or create your own system.
Printed copies are available on the table at the back of the sanctuary, of you can download a printable copy by clicking on the button below.
Everything collected will go to Northwest London Resource Centre after Easter.
