Christian Season Of Easter

Rejoice, for He has Arisen!

Easter season, or the Lenten season, is the most religious time of year for Christians. It celebrates Christ's teachings, and his final weeks on earth. It begins with Ash Wednesday which marks the beginning of the Lenten season, a time of fasting and prayer. It follows along through to Holy week which is the week leading up to his death on the cross on Good Friday. It ends with his glorious resurrection on Easter Sunday morning. It is a time to celebrate, for the Lord has arisen.

During lent, meat is not eaten on Friday. In addition, people give up something that they really enjoy. Kids may give up candies or cookies. Adults will give up a variety of things, coffee, chocolates or a favorite food.
