Already we are in the second month of the year, and Lent will be around the corner before we know it! The Social Justice Commission has prepared a resource for congregations focusing on World Day of Social Justice (20 February) and readings for the first Sunday in Lent.

The resource contains a sermon reflection, and an adaptation of a traditional prayer, both written by Rev Gordon Scantlebury, Chairperson of the Social Justice Commission.

Also, check out our SJ Teams’ Human Rights page as resources are regularly added!
