Lent 2024 – What is Mine to Do?
Download All We Can’s 2024 Lent resources!
When Jesus was in the desert, it was a time of discernment and preparation before beginning his ministry in earnest. Sometimes, however, it can feel like Lent is a time of doing - of feeling the pressure to act and be productive, rather than a time of preparation and reflection.
This year, All We Can are leaning into Lent’s roots as a time of discernment and inviting people to ask the question ‘what is mine to do?’
Sometimes when it comes to tackling injustice, our efforts can feel insufficient – like there is always something more we should be doing. Sometimes, we all need to hear the words ‘you can’t do everything!’ With All We Can’s Lent resource, you will have the chance to reflect on what is yours to do – as an All We Can supporter, and as a justice-seeker.

It may be that Lent is a time for you to take something up and make a new commitment, but it may also be a chance to decide what you need to lay down. Part of All We Can’s journey of decolonising our systems and practices has been recognising there are many tasks that are better left to our local partners, rather than done by us. Perhaps you need to go on a similar journey.
In each of the 6 weeks of Lent you will reflect on a different possible answer to the question ‘what is mine to do?’
