Lent Through African Eyes

The Second Sunday of Lent 

This Sunday, we meditate on the sin of humanity. As you read this passage, notice how serious and pervasive the effects of sin are, and how powerful Jesus’ work of justifying us is.

About this Plan

Lent Through African Eyes

Africans throughout history have shaped Christian thought and contemplative practice. Starting Ash Wednesday, explore the Lenten themes of prayer, fasting, repentance, and alms-giving. Sojourn with Jesus’ disciples from his baptism to Holy Week. Abide with him in temptation. Hear the crowd shout—celebrating, then condemning. Watch Simon of Cyrene carry the cross. Witness the crucifixion with Mary. Join a biblical pilgrimage to prepare your heart for Jesus’ passion and resurrection.
