Lent: Spiritual Practices

SPIRITUAL PRACTICES FOR LENT

2017

These resources are for use by individuals and groups during the forty-day season of Lent, from Ash Wednesday – Mar 1- through Easter – April 16.  (The Eastern Orthodox Church marks it from Feb 27 – April 16).  This part of the Christian liturgical calendar recalls Jesus’ time in the desert, fasting and praying for 40 days, and also resonates with the 40 year sojourn of the people of Israel on their way through the desert to the Promised Land.
