This Lent, journey with Catholic Relief Services to encounter families in Nigeria, Guatemala and Bangladesh while practicing the Lenten pillars of prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

Sign up to receive the 2025 Lenten calendar and emails throughout Lent to help you pray and reflect while connecting you to our global family.

Each week, we’ll share stories about our sisters and brothers who are working to overcome the impacts of poverty and hunger. You’ll also be able to access resources to learn more about Lent and how, for 50 years, CRS Rice Bowl participants have made a difference in communities around the world.

After filling out and submitting this form, we'll email your downloadable Lenten calendar, which includes daily inspiration and opportunities to pray, fast and give.

Thank you for joining us in changing lives this Lent!
