On Wednesday 5 March, we celebrated Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent and the launch of Project Compassion for 2025. ๐ Lent prepares us for the season of Easter, the most important time in the Churchโs calendar. By praying, fasting and giving alms, we are reminded of Jesusโ death and resurrection. Jesus brought the promise of hope to all people so that we may โHave life and have it to the full.โ (John 10:10) As we live into that fullness, may we also be challenged to act with love and hope, now and for all future generations.
