Lent 2025 begins on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, and concludes on Thursday, April 3, 2025. The 40-day period of Lent is a time of reflection and repentance in the Christian calendar, occurring before Easter.
Lent is a time for Christians to focus on their relationship with God and to prepare for the celebration of Easter, which commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. During Lent, many Christians observe fasting, prayer, and penance as a way to grow closer to God and to repent of their sins.
