ECO Spiritual Lent
Wed, 22 Feb 2023
For Lent 2023, the Youth Ministry Sector proposes a tool to accompany in the ECO-SPIRITUAL WAY of preparation for Easter. The journey begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Easter Sunday.
Each day we will be accompanied by a sentence from the Gospel linked to a concrete commitment. This year's theme is the ecological footprint: the Lenten journey will help lighten the ecological footprint by focusing on relationships: with God, with ourselves, with others and, thus, with all of Creation.
