Lent
is a season where Christians focus on simple living, prayer, and fasting in
order to grow closer to God. But in recent years some have taken Lent in
a different direction.
We
would like you to consider participating in our 40 Day Random Acts of
Kindness Challenge. There are so many different things you can do to
put a smile on another’s face and HELP SPREAD LOVE – and we want to see our
followers do just that!
Do you want to be held accountable? Consider printing our 40 Days Random Acts of Kindness log sheet.
If you complete all 40 days you may post the completed form on Monday, April 6
to our LILTC Facebook page and receive a free LILTC cotton t-shirt.
Also, here are a few other
ways you can kick off Lent this year if you are looking for something a little
different:
- Try an electronic “fast” -
give up electronics for 1 full day each week or go further &
give us social media for the entire 40 days (but we will miss you at Love Is
Louder Than Cancer!)
- Start a prayer rhythm - before you text someone…pray for them
- Give up Starbucks, Sonic or
whatever your choice of drink is - consider giving the money you spent on this item to
your favorite charity : )
- Create a daily quiet time - spend 30 minutes a day in silence and prayer
- Be kind to someone each day –
surprise your neighbor, friend, coworker or even a stranger with a small act of
kindness each day
- Volunteer - one hour or more each week
Always remember...LOVE IS LOUDER!
