Take Up the Challenge—A Lenten Spiritual Practice
This is an idea shared by Sue Browning of St Andrew’s-Westminster and Littlewood United Churches, London ON.  Each week during Lent, the youth of the congregation offered a Lenten challenge. 
Lenten Challenge 1:  an act of generosity
Lenten Challenge 2:  express gratitude
Lenten Challenge 3:  pray for an enemy
Lenten Challenge 4:  share your faith
Lenten Challenge 5:  reach out to someone who is lonely
Lenten Challenge 6:  do something sacrificial

This year we are invited to try this spiritual practice.
