Lent and Easter meaning across Christian traditions
Lent marks 40 days of reflection and renewal leading to Easter across Western, Lutheran, Catholic, and Orthodox churches. Clergy from St. Clement's, St. Julie, Emmanuel, and Assumption Greek Orthodox describe fasting, conversion, self denial, and service as core practices with Lent highlighting preparation, repentance, and hope in Christ.
