Two resources to help observe the season of Lent are available online, one provided by the Birmingham, Ala.-based Passport Inc., the other by a Baptist congregation in Charlottesville, Va.
Journey to the Cross, a Lenten devotional series sponsored by Passport, features Scripture, prayer and meditative thoughts, accompanied by music recorded by pianist Ken Medema.
Passport is a nonprofit provide of ecumenical summer camps “that model important lessons like service in the name of Christ.” It is supported by the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, Episcopal Church, Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), United Methodist Church and Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
Journey to the Cross is part of Passport’s year-round devotion site, d365.org.
All Souls, a Baptist congregation in Charlottesville, has prepared both a short introduction to Lent, which includes suggestions for discerning a Lenten practice, and a prayer guide for the season.
