Make a Lenten offering
Check out Women of the ELCA’s
Lent offering reflection. This devotion can be done
alone or with a group. Your Lenten offering will go
to help support Women of the ELCA’s health initiative,
“Raising up Healthy Women and Girls.”
There are other ways to
incorporate spiritual disciplines into your everyday
life. Read the
Stewardship reflection, “Giving daily care.”
