What is Lent
and why is it
celebrated?
Source: https://ewtn.com
Lent is the liturgical season of "preparation for the celebration of Easter. For the Lenten liturgy disposes both catechumens and the faithful to celebrate the paschal mystery: catechumens, through the several stages of Christian initiation; the faithful, through reminders of their own baptism and through penitential practices" (General Instruction of the Roman Calendar).
In 2024, Lent begins on February 14 (Ash Wednesday) and ends on March 28 (Holy Thursday), as the Mass of the Lord’s Supper begins. Easter Sunday is March 31.
