A Prayer for Lent

Kayla Craig

Feb 27, 2023

It is the season of Lent, a time for spiritual preparation and renewal. We join generations upon generations of Christians who have embarked on this forty-day journey, asking God to examine our hearts and help us to reorient ourselves toward Christ. This week, let us pray together for God to illuminate the way for us and for our children as we turn away from the world and toward the One who leads from death into life.

Find Kayla’s litany for Lent and more prayers from others in Rally: Communal Prayers for Lovers of Jesus and Justice.
