What is Lent?
- Lent is the forty day period of preparation for Easter.
- It is a time to reflect on our lives and on the things which make it hard to follow Jesus and the things which can stand in the way of our relationship with God and with other people.
- It is a time to take on new practices or disciplines, like more intentional prayer or mindful living.
- It can be a time to slow down and be thankful.
- It can also be a time to wonder what needs to die in our lives in order for us to be reborn more fully into Christ.
