🕊️ About Lent
Lent is a 40-day liturgical season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving that prepares Christians for Easter. It begins on Ash Wednesday and ends at sunset on Holy Thursday.
The 40 days represent the time Jesus spent fasting in the desert. Sundays are excluded from the count in Western tradition because each Sunday is considered a "mini-Easter" celebration.
Lent is observed by Catholics, Anglicans, Lutherans, Methodists, and many other Christian denominations worldwide. Common practices include fasting, abstinence from meat on Fridays, and giving up a personal indulgence.
