CCS Lenten Challenge: “Will we bend down and help another to get up?”

In his recent encyclical ‘Fratelli Tutti’, Pope Francis sets us a challenge:

      “Each day we have to decide whether to be Good Samaritans or indifferent bystanders . . .   Will we bend down and help another get up? This is today’s challenge, and we should not be afraid to face it.”

This Lent we are asking schools to take up Pope Francis’ challenge and help local disadvantaged children and families in their time of need.

FREE Resources: We have produced free online activities and resources for schools to encourage pupils to think about how they can help others and the difference they can make. All resources will be available on our website in the New Year. Fundraising boxes and stickers are still available on request (please let us know in the box below).

We would be so grateful if you could support our Lenten Appeal this year. To sign up please complete the form below:
