Different Rhythm: Lent

For centuries the Christian church has organized the year into liturgical seasons. In so doing, it makes sacred the ordinary time of a twelve-month calendar.  By sanctifying our hours and days this way the church traces the mystery of salvation and the course of salvation history.

Lent is the forty-day liturgical season stretching from Ash Wednesday through to Easter Eve. In this episode of our year-long series about the church seasons Jamie Howison introduces us to what lies ahead.

If you are close-by, plan to join us during Lent as we find varied to explore the rich meanings of this season.
