Eat, Pray and Give will take place every Friday during this 40-day season of prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Friday evenings at Assumption will begin with the Stations of the Cross followed by a simple soup dinner.
6:30pm: Stations of the Cross – In Church, the scheduled ministry team of the week leads the Stations of the Cross. The ministry will hand out a special Stations of the Cross handout for everyone participating, which will be provided by the staff.
7:00pm-7:30pm: Soup – A non-meat soup and bread is prepared by the scheduled ministry of the week to be served in the ministry center.
Donations collected during each Friday’s Eat, Pray and Give will be sent to a particular charity, decided by the weekly scheduled ministry.
Prayer, from the heart; fasting from those things that interfere in strengthening a relationship with God; and almsgiving with compassion for those in need will make the Lenten journey a fruitful period of renewal. All are welcome!
