What is Lent?
Lent is the period of six weeks (40 days, not including Sundays) leading up to Easter, the most important festival in the Christian calendar. Jesus went into the wilderness for 40 days to fast and pray before beginning his work for God, during which time he was tempted several times by Satan, but was able to resist.
Lent in 2024 starts on Ash Wednesday, 14th February, and ends on Thursday 28th March.
The last week of Lent is Easter Holy Week.
