Lent


   WHAT WILL YOU DO TO REFLECT AND PREPARE THIS   LENTEN SEASON?


Sister Maureen came to help us prepare for the start of Lent.
 When is Lent?


The season of Lent begins TODAY and is the period of forty days before Easter, from Ash Wednesday to Holy Week. (Sundays are not counted in the forty days. Lent is a serious time but Sundays are always a day of celebration in the Christian church and so they are not included in the forty days of Lent.)

What does 'Lent' mean?

Lent is an old English word meaning 'lengthen' and happens in Spring when the days begin to get longer.

Why do we celebrate Lent?

Lent is a serious and thoughtful festival, a season for reflection and thinking about the things we have done wrong and what we should do better in the future.


SO WHAT WILL YOU DO TO REFLECT AND PREPARE THIS LENTEN SEASON?
