The Primate's World Relief and Development Fund's three-year education focus aims to bring Creation care: Climate action issues to as broad an audience as possible.  

As this education focus moves into its second year, the theme centres on gender.  Three women who participated in COP26 were invited to enter into a Lenten conversation with each other and with you.

The resource begins on the first Sunday in Lent, March 6, 2022, and continues until Easter Eve.

Each day the writers invite you to read scripture, reflect and pray with them. Subscribe below to receive the daily reflections in your inbox and deepen your connection with PWRDF.

The resource will also be available March 1 to download as a PDF, for those who wish to view it in its entirety.
