Lent is a penitential season in the Church which takes place over the forty days prior to Easter. Lent begins on Ash Wednesday.
The time of Lent is marked by three spiritual disciplines - prayer, fasting and charitable works (also known as almsgiving). These three disciplines help us to focus less on ourselves and more on those who are poor and disadvantaged.
Lent challenges us to turn away from our sins and turn back to God.
