This Lent, our community will participate in Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Rice Bowl connecting our prayers, fasting, and almsgiving to encounter God through our global family.

We’ll meet, pray for and learn from families in Ghana, Guatemala and Timor-Leste who are rising above the challenges of hunger and malnutrition.

Holy Week, the heart of the liturgical year, invites us to journey with Christ through His Passion, Death and Resurrection.

As we witness the Last Supper and Jesus’ gift of the Eucharist, we are reminded of our call to be bread broken for others. Let us draw strength from the
Bread of Life and dedicate ourselves to serving our sisters and brothers who bear heavy crosses,

bringing hope and resurrection to the world.

You can return your Rice Bowl donations over the next three weekends.

There will be a basket near the baptismal font. Please convert coins to currency. If writing a check, make it out to St. Elizabeth and write “Rice Bowl” on the memo line.

You can use any envelope for your donation – just write Rice Bowl on it and include your name. Thank you for your sacrificial gift!
