Greetings!
May this newsletter find you well!
I hope you enjoy the first two weeks of this year's Lenten reflections. You also find EfJ's second piece in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Economic Justice for All. This four page resource explores chapter two of this historical document, which reviews the biblical basis for economic justice. As we make our Lenten pilgrimage, you may also want to reflect on the film, THE WAY.
