Join Episcopal Relief & Development AND the Society of St. John the Evangelist on a Lenten Journey
Lenten meditations

Episcopal Relief  Development (ERD)

For 15 years, ERD has been blessed by the opportunity to join readers on their spiritual journeys with thought-provoking meditations. During Lent, we pray, “Create and make in us new and contrite hearts.” Written by Miguel Escobar, our 2024 meditations focus on embracing this new heart, this new life in Christ, and looking deep within ourselves and acting in ways that seek and serve Christ in others.

Visit episcopalrelief.org/Lent or scan the QR code to subscribe to daily emails, download a PDF, read the meditations and access a Group Study Guide to reflect on the meditations and Scripture with other.

Serve With Us
We believe serving is both a privilege and an act of worship. In volunteering, we grow closer to our church family and become more like Jesus as we use our God-given gifts to bless others.
