A VEGETARIAN DIET FOR LENT

Reviving the ancient Christian Tradition of abstaining
from meat consumption during Lent, we respectfully
invite all Christians to use VEG4LENT as a period of
reflection and prayer for all those currently condemned
to the slaughterhouse.

As a contemporary adaptation of an ancient tradition,
we politely urge each participant to adopt a vegetarian
diet for each and every day between Ash Wednesday
and Easter Sunday.

Lent is a sacred and spiritual period for Christians
the world over. Greater empathy with Christ, gained
during the Lenten period, allows us to be more
receptive to the needs of our neighbour. As Christ
taught us our neighbour is s/he who suffers. Are there
any who suffer more than those condemned
to the slaughterhouse?
