Lenten Prayers and Reflections - Week 2
This Lent, we invite you to join us in weekly reflection for hungry children around the world.
In these challenging times we believe that coming together virtually in this way will draw us closer as a community and connect us more deeply with the children and communities we serve.
Please spread the word by sharing our Lenten reflections with your friends, family and church community.
We are honored and humbled to walk the 40 days of Lent with you.

Week 2 Reflection
Prayer is…
Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will act.
Psalm 37:4
As we continue our Lenten journey together, our focus for this week is prayer. In the Psalms, the word “selah” is used to create a space to pause and reflect. During our Lenten journey, we will be pausing for prayer and reflection as a community.
The season of Lent can feel differently each year, depending on what is on our minds and hearts – and this year is no exception.
Often, we choose to spend time in reflection, considering the sacrifice that Jesus made for us and preparing to celebrate his resurrection and coming again.
This Lent let’s take time to pause and reflect on the great need to care for children around the world who wrestle with the impact of poverty and hunger every day.
Together, let’s read the Mary’s Meals prayer.
Consider starting every day in Lent with this prayer. Allow yourself to hear each word and listen to your mind and heart.
