Lent as a season of self denial and service
Lent marks a 40 day period in the church year though Sundays don’t count. Some observe fasting and self denial to subdue the flesh while others redirect sacrifice to aid the hungry, visit the sick, and support community projects. The season emphasizes service over personal salvation and is a reminder to renew duties throughout the year.
