During Lent our community participates in Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Rice Bowl—connecting our prayers, fasting and almsgiving to encounter God through our global family. We’ll read about, pray for and learn from families in Ghana, Guatemala and Timor-Leste who are rising above the challenges of hunger and malnutrition. Rice Bowls are still available at the church doors. Learn more at crsricebowl.com
