Hunger resources to feed the soul during Lent

Hi, folks! My first post on "Hunger Rumblings" is very practical in nature, as it's time to order resources for Lent, as Ash Wednesday is February 6. Help your congregation, Sunday School class, circle, committee or other group "take on" for Lent...a journey to feed the soul to gain courage and commitment to feed the hungry. Blessings on your heads! Sue-s
