40-40-40 Lenten Challenge: Donate to ELCA World Hunger
One option in our Region 2 Lenten Challenge this year is to donate to ELCA World Hunger. Have you donated?
Pledge to give $1 a day (or more) to ELCA World Hunger for the 40 days of Lent.
Of course, you don’t have to donate every day. One donation per person, or per family, or per congregation during Lent is fine. We’re suggesting a minimum or $50 per person in honor of 50 Years of ELCA World Hunger.
Remember, we’re counting individual participation, so the more people signed up per synod, the better. The total donation amount for ELCA World Hunger per synod is not the criterion we’ll use for determining the winner.
ELCA World Hunger offers many ways to give to support their efforts.
Don't want to donate online? Fine! Send a check to your synod office or give to ELCA World Hunger through your congregation.
How does the 40-40-40 Lenten Challenge work?
There are 4 Lenten practices to consider, and you commit to 3 of the 4.
Daily Devotion ~ Subscribe to receive daily email devotions for Lent or use ELCA World Hunger pre-made devotions. Learn more.
Daily Discipline ~ Do one wellness activity every day. Maybe it’s your daily workout, maybe is a 1-mile walk a day. Maybe it’s taking an extra flight of stairs or an extra glass of water. Read more.
Daily Declutter ~ Once a day find a way to daily de-clutter, de-stress, and re-tune. It could be cleaning out the garage, cleaning your calendar, or finding some time to de-clutter a desk or drawer and donating gently used items. Get ideas.
