There are great resources available from Catholic Relief Services to promote and implement a hunger retreat program in your parish, school or deanery.
Food Fast resources are available in both english and spanish.
Do you want to do an impactful retreat for Confirmation? Do you want to prepare your group for a mission trip by grounding them in Catholic Social Teaching and a lived experience of solidarity? Are you looking for a way to get your parish community involved in youth ministry?
Food Fast is a great program for all of the above!
You can collaborate and partner with neighboring parishes to share the work load and to organize the event. All permission slips, schedules, activities, prayers, ice breakers are available on line at the Food Fast website and are new, fresh and powerful. www.foodfast.org
Speakers can be brought in for an additional powerful element of the experience.
CRS has more than 70 priests, deacons, and seminarians committed to spreading the message about our gospel call to global solidarity. Our Global Fellows have witnessed firsthand how the work of CRS helps bring joy and assistance to those in need around the world.A CRS Global Fellow can visit your youth group and community and share how CRS is helping those who are hungry overseas. To invite a Global Fellow to your community contact Mikaele Sansone at 410-951-7336 or msansone@crs.org.
