Venerable Patrick Peyton was known for saying, “The family who prays together, stays together.” This Lent, commit to a prayer challenge that will help your family grow in the habit of prayer. This challenge consists of a game board with 40 unique challenges; your family can choose which one to do each day to complete the board in the 40 days of Lent.

This year’s prayer challenge is the first of three ways the Archdiocese of Detroit will be preparing for the celebration of the World Meeting of Families, which will be held in Rome in June of 2022 and broadcast worldwide. In place of the usual public worldwide gathering of families, the Vatican is strongly encouraging that all dioceses, with their local bishops, engage families to celebrate at the local level with formation, prayer, and fellowship. This prayer challenge is an opportunity for your family to join with families all over the world to grow and strengthen the domestic Church.

Sign-up below to receive the prayer challenge via email. You can view it in either English or Spanish. You will also receive emails of encouragement throughout the Lenten season with additional information and fun content to enliven your Lenten journey. Don’t miss this opportunity to grow closer to God and each other this Lenten season!
