Days 1 - 5

As well as filling up your WEE BOX, which will help SCIAF to make BIG changes to people living in poverty, there are many wee things you can do to help make BIG CHANGES in the world we live in.

Some you might be doing already, some you might never have thought of, but read on and we hope that at least some of our 40 days of Lent will inspire you to get involved and make BIG CHANGES in as many ways as possible!

Click on the links to the left to find other ways to make a difference during the rest of Lent.

Day 1
Decide on what you are going to give up for Lent this year – put the money you save in a WEE BOX. If you haven’t got a WEE BOX, call 0141 354 5555 or order one at www.theweebox.org.

Day 2
Draw a picture or write on the side of your WEE BOX what you are giving up for Lent.

Day 3
During Lent, use your SCIAF prayer bookmark to reflect each day on the importance of peace. War and conflict are often the causes of famine, hardship and injustice around the world.

Day 4
Fill out SCIAF’s climate change campaign postcard and put it in the post – the Scottish Government will hear your voice.

Day 5
Order a WEE BOX for a family member or friend by calling SCIAF on 0141 354 5555 or by visiting www.theweebox.org - Suggest to them what they could give up for Lent!.
