🙏 Daily Lenten Prayer

Today Lord, I choose life,
I choose your love and the challenge to live it and share it,
I choose faith, accepting you as Lord and God,
I choose to let go of some part of my burdens,
Day by day, handing them over to you.
I choose to take hold of your strength and power
Ever more deeply in my life.
May I come to Easter with a heart open to dying with you
And rising to new life, day by day.
Amen.

Create a Prayer Space at Home

A simple way to keep Lent in the family:

• Purple cloth – penance

• Crucifix – Christ’s love

• Holy water – blessing each day

• Candle – light of prayer

• Bowl of sand – Jesus’ forty days in the desert

Daily Lenten Prayer

Today Lord, I choose life,
I choose your love and the challenge to live it and share it,
I choose faith, accepting you as Lord and God,
I choose to let go of some part of my burdens,
Day by day, handing them over to you.
I choose to take hold of your strength and power
Ever more deeply in my life.
May I come to Easter with a heart open to dying with you
And rising to new life, day by day.
Amen.

Please don’t leave it to others — have your say before 16 December 2025.
