Here’s the deal – choose at least one action from each of the four boxes, agree a time limit and maybe a prize with your group. Who can complete the challenge first? Who can change the world? Serve others! Get revolutionary!

Every little helps! Change your life to change the world. Add a meat-free day
to your week and reduce your carbon footprint.
Turn off lights and chargers when you are not using them to save energy.
Use Twitter, Facebook or Instagram to share inspiring pictures and quotes.
Live on £1 a day in solidarity with those who don't have enough to eat. Tweet about it to spread the message, tagging @CAFOD.
At the end of each day, reflect on three things you are thankful for. Say a prayer of thanks.

perhaps people need help gardening or decorating.
