Lenten Fast to End Gun Violence
December 05, 2025
Join the Nuns Against Gun Violence (NAGV) coalition's third annual Lenten Fast to End Gun Violence. As people of faith, we are called to nonviolence as we face the epidemic of gun violence in the United States. Participants may commit to fast in a personally meaningful way, and each will receive weekly prayerful reflections from people affected by gun violence. Sign up now to receive more information in January: bit.ly/2026Fast
I know, we have not even made it through Advent, but Lent starts February 18, 2026!
Please share this information with your parishes and dioceses.
NAGV is looking for people to share their personal story of gun violence in the way of a written reflection and/or art. One reflection will be emailed weekly during Lent. Themes of gun violence include suicide, arms trafficking, migration, domestic violence, and more. For more information, contact Angela McParland at amcparland@sistersofmercy.org
