LENT, in most Christian denominations, is the forty-day liturgical season of fasting and prayer before Easter.[1] The forty days represent the time Jesus spent in the desert, where, according to the Bible, he endured temptation by Satan.[2] Different churches will calculate the forty days differently.

The purpose of Lent is the preparation of the believer—through prayer, penitence, almsgiving and self-denial—for the annual commemoration of the Death and Resurrection of Jesus, as celebrated during Holy Week, which recalls the events linked to the Passion of Christ and culminates in Easter, the celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

it doesn't neccesarily mean to fast but to give up something really dear to you like, Chocolate, Internet, Ect.

Tony gave up drill bits. (He LENT them to someone.)

Nice to see he's taking part in this. :biggrin:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The Teutonic word Lent, which we employ to denote the forty days' fast preceding Easter, originally meant no more than the spring season.

ok so I see.. I saw the most Christian faiths comment and wondered.. I have two of the biggest represented here and neither of us had hear of this but I later found it is a Jewish ceremony.
