Bishop Christopher's Lent Call 2021
Each Lent since 1986, successive Bishops of Southwark have called the parishes of the Diocese to a time of prayer and contemplation, through the Lent Call. The theme for this year is food insecurity, and focuses on the work of food banks in our Diocese and food insecurity in places where we, as a Diocese, have strong links: Zimbabwe and the Holy Land. Each week of Lent there will be a focus on food insecurity in these troubled places where many of our brothers and sisters find it hard to ensure that their families are fed.
"For many in our communities and Link Dioceses, not having enough to eat is sadly and appallingly now a regular occurrence. I urge you all to pray for those in these situations and to consider prayerfully what you can give to help to support them." - Bishop Christopher
