Caritas Australia 2008's Project Compassion is giving out Lenten Sharepacks (thru our Parish) wherein you'll find six envelopes, one for each week of Lent. Each week, the relevant envelope should be returned to the parish containing your donation.
The first week envelope is for the Philippines:
The other five envelopes will go to Australia, West Java (Indonesia), Kenya, Brazil and Fiji.
My little Lenten Sacrifice this year is to save my lunch money for the week (no lunch out or buying lunch at work) and instead bring lunch from home every day. The money I'm able to save from not buying lunch for six weeks will go into these envelopes. It's not much but as the Caritas envelope says "It only takes a little to make a big change".
