Lent Prayer Resource

SAMS Ireland, a mission agency facilitating church partnerships with church communities in South America, has unveiled a new resource for Lent 2024. This prayer guide is designed to provide prayer support for South American church initiatives and outreach projects throughout the Lenten season.

With a daily prayer focus linked to specific ministries and church endeavors with link dioceses in South America, this resource aims to deepen the engagement of churches and individuals in prayerful support. Each day of Lent will offer a prayer point, allowing participants to intercede for the various challenges and opportunities faced by the Church in South America.

The downloadable PDF format ensures accessibility for churches, small groups, and individuals seeking to actively engage in prayer during Lent.

“Prayer is a powerful tool for fostering unity and supporting our brothers and sisters in Christ,” remarked Claire Holmes for SAMS Ireland. “Through this Lent 2024 prayer resource, we hope to facilitate meaningful connections and ignite hearts with a passion for mission and ministry in South America.”

The Lent 2024 prayer resource is now available for download on the SAMS Ireland website, inviting churches and individuals to join in prayerful support with the Church in South America throughout the Lenten season.
