Our Lenten Pilgrimage

LENT/EASTER MISSION CAMPAIGN
Homeless. Working. Families. That's who Family Promise of Bergen County serves. How can you be employed and be homeless? It's easy - when your monthly rent exceeds your paychecks...or when a big medical bill wipes out your savings. Anyone can become homeless. This year, our Lent/Easter Campaign will benefit Family Promise of Bergen County. Our goal: to raise $40,000 by Easter - $1,000 for each of the 40 days of Lent. Click here to make a donation of any size. Every dollar matters!

LENTEN SMALL GROUPS 
During Lent, the pastors will be preaching on Mahatma Gandi's Seven Social Sins: Wealth Without Work, Knowledge Without Character, Pleasure Without Conscience, Commerce Without Morality, Science Without Humanity and Politics Without Principle. Join us for a deeper dive into these challenging but important faith concepts each week as part of your Lenten journey. Click here to sign up.

PILGRIMAGE TO JERUSALEM
On Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, we embarked on a 40-day Pilgrimage to Jerusalem. The virtual walk will cover 5,688 miles, and we plan to get there by Easter! We invite you to log your miles - walking, hiking, swimming, skiing - and share your photographs and thoughts during optional check-ins via Zoom on Sundays at 11:30 am. We also invite you to participate in our Lent/Easter Campaign while you walk - perhaps "X" cents or dollars per mile for Family Promise of Bergen County. Click here to sign up.
