Lenten prayer calendar
Let's remember to pray for our congregation, not just ourselves.
This calendar was originally created and shared in 2015.
Lent is the season for spiritual spring cleaning. As we journey to the foot of the cross, we shed (with God’s help) the things that keep us from being closer to God and to one another. On Easter we celebrate the redemption of our lives together in Christ.
It is important to engage in spiritual disciplines that help us acknowledge and remove barriers to bonds on a personal level. But I think it’s just as critical to discern relationship distractions and oversights on a communal level. Where do we particularly need help as a church so that we can fully join with other parts of Christ’s body in carrying out God’s call? The calendar below contains a season full of prayer prompts to orient congregations toward renewed cohesiveness, health, and outward focus. A grayscale PDF is available here.
