The Lent Project

Commit yourself to learning, praying, and staying accountable during Lent in a supportive group of fellow students.

Note: The Lent Project is on hiatus for the Spring 2022 semester. Please keep an eye on the front page of our website for updates about Lenten opportunities, and reach out to ministry@up.edu if you would like to discuss ways to connect with a faith-sharing community this spring!

About the Lent Project:

The Lent Project is an invitation to challenge yourself to grow closer to Christ during Lent, with help from friends along the way. Students who decide to participate will make a commitment to:

  • Attend weekly sessions focusing on the life of Christ and different forms of prayer. 
  • Pray twenty minutes a day, every day.
  • Participate weekly in a faith-sharing group of peers for support and accountability. Faith-sharing group meeting times will be decided at the first meeting.
