will be distributed on Ash Wednesday and on the weekend of March 5th and 6th, 2022. As we begin our 2022 Rice Bowls Campaign, we would like to encourage you to view Rice Bowl as a resource for your Lenten Program of sacrifice and service. We want to especially encourage efforts to engage young people. Rice Bowl can be an ideal program for teens and young adults, in your school, Confirmation Program and other outreach activities. However, young or not so young, we are all obliged to help reshape our parishes, schools, communities, national and world attitudes about the poor and their needs. Rice Bowls can help in this effort.
