(Virtual) Journey to Jerusalem š“šāāļø
During the six weeks of Lent we will be cycling, running and walking the equivalent distance of Preston to Jerusalem - 5,255km - so that we can (virtually) arrive in time for the events of the Easter Triduum (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday).
Led by our YOKE Young Leaders, a team from Metanoia Project will be raising funds to enable our ministry to continue despite the ongoing strain that the COVID restrictions are having on our finances.
Over the next few weeks, we're going to be sharing posts from our fantastic fundraisers. Please give generously!
"Hi Iām Aleena,
I am involved in the Metanoia Project as a young leader. I enjoy being active and so this challenge will be a great way to push myself and achieve 10k steps a day.
Finally, I want to raise money for Metanoia Project as it is something that I love being a part of and I hope it continues successfully!
Please sponsor me!"

The song I'd like to share this week is 'I Surrender' by All Sons & Daughters.
I've loved this song for a while, but it's taken on a new meaning for me in this Lenten season. The song is about offering ourselves to God, casting everything aside, knowing that it is in Him alone we find everything we need.
I especially love the lyrics of the first verse:
"The riches of this world will fade
The treasures of our God remain
Here I empty myself to owe this world
Nothing and find everything in You"
It serves as a beautiful reminder to me that the sacrifices I am making for Lent are to help me empty myself of everything of the world, and find my everything in God. I don't want to make Lent about me - I want to surrender everything to God, and know that He will give me everything I need and more.
The song ends with:
"Not my will, but Yours be done
Not my strength, but Yours alone
Nothing else, but You oh Lord
I find everything in You"
This is my prayer for this week - that I would know that all things are possible with God, and that He will fulfil every desire of my heart.

At the heart of Metanoia Project are the people, the team, who work together to help bring about the Kingdom of God. We'd love for you to get to know these lovely people better...
"Hi, Iām Anto and Iāve been involved with the Metanoia Project since about 2013.
At first I was part of the youth groups, from GFF to Sent and then the Faith In Action Program which led me to helping out in the youth groups and events. I have also helped out at celebrate and currently help with Unveiled.
Isaiah 40:31 ā 'But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.'
I like this Bible verse as it gives hope and shows that not much is needed to actually be happy."

I had a broken gear cable and Joe had a flat tyre but we still cycled 37.57km in the rain today. Why bother? Because we believe so fully in all that Metanoia Project stands for and is doing to help build God's Kingdom here in Preston. Pandemic restrictions have hit our finances hard, even though we have continued our ministry in lots of ways throughout. I know lots of people and great causes are competing for your finances right now but if you have a few spare pennies for Metanoia Project as we cover the distance to Jerusalem virtually during Lent we would be very grateful. gofund.me/f6aa9b52
Keep it up! St Joseph, pray for Joe and Ruth.
Wow - TOP EFFORT š š“
Well done.

This week I would like to share 'How can I keep from singing' by Audrey Assad.
Today is the first day of Lent, after a difficult year for so many people.
This song has been a comfort to me in the past couple of weeks, ALL the lyrics are perfect, but there are 2 lines I'd like to share with you particularly.
'For all things are mine since I am His'
We are God's children, how lucky am I to have a faith in a God who loves me perfectly, a God who is all powerful and all good, and who wants to be my friend and my father!
'No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that refuge clinging'
I don't need to fear anything when I'm with God, He is my refuge and He will never let me down!
-Nora

One of the things we are doing for Lent this year here at Metanoia Project is a Fundraiser!
During the six weeks of Lent we will be cycling, running and walking the equivalent distance of Preston to Jerusalem - 5,255km - so that we can (virtually) arrive in time for the events of the Easter Triduum (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday).
Led by our YOKE Young Leaders, a team from Metanoia Project will be raising funds to enable our ministry to continue despite the ongoing strain that the Covid restrictions are having on our finances. Please give generously!
Almsgiving is one of the three disciplines of Lent (along with prayer and fasting) so if you'd like to send some of your almsgiving our way we would be very grateful. We will be posting regular updates to let you know how we are getting on so look out for those too!
