PARISH PROJECTS

Put your faith into action!

Stretch your hearts and hands across the ocean to people in need by participating in LWR Parish Projects.

By sharing tools for better health and education, you bring new hope and dignity to thousands of women, children and men throughout the world. Pencils, soap, needles and thread, quilts…these ordinary things become extraordinary when they are assembled into LWR Parish Projects and shared as gifts of love and comfort.

 

Show the love of Christ to people all around the world by being a voice for the voiceless and advocating for justice in the world. Protect the dignity of others by buying Fair Trade coffee, chocolate and other products. Educate your fellow parish members about LWR’s innovative, long-term solutions to world hunger and poverty.

As you explore this Be Involved section of our website, listen for God’s call to put your faith into action. Look for new ways to share your gifts. Pray for God’s guidance in selecting the projects and activities that open your heart and mind to a broader understanding of doing justice, loving mercy and walking humbly with our God.
