What is Lent anyways?
Lent is the 40 (or so) days preceding Easter. Lent is representative of the 40 days Jesus spent in the wilderness as described in the books of Matthew, Mark, and Luke in the New Testament in the Bible. It’s celebrated as a time of reflection and fasting to prepare for Easter. Read more about Lent.
Churches all over the world celebrate Lent in many, many different ways. Some fast or give up something for the entire 40 days, like soda, candy, Facebook, etc. Others spend the time in reflection and worship to prepare for Easter.
