Read and Reflect
Scripture Reading: Romans 8:31b-34
God did not withhold anything from us, but gave up his own Son for our salvation.
Reflection:
Consider what the Lord has called you to give up during this Lenten season. How can you use that sacrifice to bring him glory and share his mercy with others?
Verse to Memorize
Then a cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud there came a voice, “This is my Son, the Beloved; listen to him!”

“Every Drop Counts“
Place your collection cup near the bathroom sink, kitchen sink or water dispenser at home. Encourage each family member to place a few coins in the collection cup every time they get a drink, wash their hands or wash the dishes.
Fact and Prayer
Nearly 70% of Kenya’s population does not have access to proper sanitation
(such as modern toilets or latrines).
(The World Bank, 2017)
Dear Lord, thank you that you are a good Father who loves to give good gifts to your children. We lift up the villages in southern Kenya that do not have clean water or proper sanitation. Please meet their needs, heal their bodies and fill them with hope for the future. In the name of Christ our Lord, Amen.
