WHAT IS LENT?

LENT IS a special 40-day time that starts on Ash Wednesday and ends right before Easter, on Holy Thursday. It’s a time for prayer and hitting pause to focusing on what really matters. This time is connected to the 40 days Jesus spent fasting and resisting temptation in the wilderness. Lent helps us prepare for the big celebration of Easter, which is all about new beginnings and feeling refreshed in our faith.
