Trócaire Lenten Campaign Now, half-way through our Lenten journey, is a time when we think again about how we are deepening our relationship with God and with others. It is an opportunity to renew our commitment and solidarity with our sisters and brothers, especially those most affected by the many changes we are seeing in our weather patterns; floods, winds, droughts. This week, why not use www.foe.ie/justoneearth/carboncalculator/ to check your carbon footprint? Or look at how we can be more conscious in our use of water, electricity, and the earth’s resources. Let’s make a change for those most affected by climate change. www.trocaire.ie
