Days of Lenten season
Before Easter, Christians observe Lent, a period of spiritual
preparation. It begins on Ash Wednesday in Western Christianity. Many
Christians practice fasting, repentance, moderation, self-denial, and spiritual
discipline throughout Lent. The objective of the Lenten season is to devote
time to contemplating Jesus Christ's suffering and sacrifice, as well as his
life, death, burial, and resurrection. It began on Wednesday, March 2 and it will end Saturday, April 16. A 40 days
which is pre-Lenten fast in preparation for Great Lent - Great Lent itself
- the Paschal fast during Holy Week which immediately follows Lent.
