There are many ways that families and parishes can enhance their Lenten observance. The Diocese of Memphis is asking parishioners to abstain from daily cups of coffee and after-dinner snacks, donating that money to Operation Rice Bowl. Not sure how to organize your own Lenten activities? Operation Rice Bowl offers a week-by-week guide for parishes, including tips on how to involve parish committees and incorporating ORB into weekly activities. It also includes a timeline that will help parishes plan and organize Operation Rice Bowl in their community.
