Lent is a time when people give up something important to them or something that they really like, like no TV for 40 days and 40 nights. Lent is that time of the month when Jesus spend the days suffering by fasting in the desert. It is a time of a change of heart and it is a time when people turn back to God. Lent is the time when Jesus went through suffering and reflection to help him teach and heal others.
Lent is in March. It finishes on palm Sunday.Then three days later we will celebrate Holy Thursday,Good Friday and Holy Saturday. On the first day of Lent we receive the ashes Ashes in the shape of a cross on our
forehead. We celebrated Ash Wednesday at church by having a special Mass.
Lent is important because Jesus showed us how to turn back to God. Jesus showed us how to change our lives and make our relationship with God even better.
