We are now about to start the third week of lent and we looking at our series called Love Life, Live Lent. Love Life 
Live Lent is a new way of marking Lent. Instead of giving up chocolate or going on a detox, it encourages people to undertake a simple act of generosity each day. The actions are small and fun to do, but make a real difference in homes, families and communities.
There are times when we want to make a difference but we fail at the first hurdle because we don’t plan it, we are intentional. Now there are 10 items to choose from. You might want to do them as a whole family, you might choose to do one yourself. No matter, now is the time to do that planning.
Choose just one from the list below;
- Don’t watch TV or play on the computer – do something with your family
- Make sure you say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ all day
- Find out about the countries where your clothes are made
- Read a story to a younger child
- Half the world lives on £1.40 a day – can you?
- Limit yourself to checking e-mails/texts only once per day
- Use a ‘buy one get one free’ and give one away
- Walk or cycle a route you would normally drive
- Spend five minutes quietly by yourself
- Save trees – use both sides of the paper
What have you chosen?
When are you going to it?
Come and write what and who you are going to do on the sheets of paper around the room.
