NOW ENTERING THE HOUSE OF PRAYER & THE HOUSE OF THE POOR...Join us for this adventure, and yes, it is going to be an adventure. While some of it is serious stuff, the process can still be fun. You might be asked to leave your comfort zone a few times, so like you mom says, "just try it!"25 small daily actions are designed to help you walk in the shoes of people who are facing poverty all around the world. We hope these little disruptions in your life will be a way for you to discover a new unity and compassion with the poor. Try to do them with joy.We encourage you to take the challenge with your family, or with a friend or a group. You can even join a Facebook group. Don't be afraid to post your reactions and photos! (Yeah, somewhat embarrassing photos!)And... this is not meant to be a guilt trip. Don't feel guilty if you miss a couple of days, that's okay. Don't even feel guilty that you weren't aware of some of the needs of the poor, or feel like you haven't done enough to help. We all feel that way.The important thing is that during this 25 day journey - you begin to make poverty personal. Every day there is a prayer, an action and a question or reflection. We dare you to walk through those doors!
