Operation Rice Bowl

For Lent, in addition to praying more and reading scripture every night, I decided to donate $40 (a dollar a day!) to Operation Rice Bowl, run by Catholic Relief Services.



Since we are called to give up meat on Fridays, and gluttony as well during Lent, it helps us to remember those that aren't so fortunate and experience hunger constantly. 75% percent of the proceeds go to 40 different countries across the world, and the other 25% goes to your local community. It's a great way to help everyone!

You can learn more about it here.

Happy Lent!
