The Episcopal Church Office of Black Ministries has issued a free Lenten Study Resource, "Fill Me, Use Me...for the Work of Ministry," designed to invite all ages to participate in the reflective nature of Lent.
"The Lenten Study
Resource has been designed upon the foundation of faith formation to
serve as a companion to you on your Lenten journey as you take on the
disciplines of holy listening and reflection in preparation for the
Lord's passion and resurrection," explained the Rev. Angela Ifill,
Missioner for the Office of Black Ministries. Rooted in
the Baptismal Covenant, each section is presented in key highlights:
Opening Ritual, Scripture Reading, Reflection, Exploring the Landscape,
Discussion Questions, Closing Ritual, and Assignment. Also
included in the Lenten Study Resource are the Baptismal Covenant from
the Book of Common Prayer, the Five Marks of Mission, and the Charter
for Lifelong Christian Formation. For more information contact Ifill at aifill@episcopalchurch.org.
