Reflections on Lent: Sacrifice yourself

You've got to share your toys. 
You're going to bed right now if you don't let your sister play with that. 
Santa won't like it if you don't share your toys.

These were the messages about sharing we got taught as children. Today it comes in much subtler nudges such as:

Can I try your cheeseburger?
Can I borrow that sweater?
Do you have a cheese grate I could borrow?

All things you may have asked yourself but some much harder when they're asked of us. Well this week - our last week - of Lent, act:s is calling us to share - share you sacrifices. share you passions. share your struggles. and share Christ.

act:s Week 6
"If you are truly passionate about something, there is a story that lead you to be passionate about it. And it is in that story that someone can relate to your passion and get involved...and that's where the power lay."
