Lent means springtime. Lent is 40 days long (not
counting Sundays, which are always feast days) reflecting the 40 days
of rain for Noah, the 40 years of schooling of the people, Israel, in
the Exodus, and the 40 days of testing of Jesus in the wilderness after
his baptism in the Jordan River. Liturgies during Lent are subdued,
introspective, and penitential in nature, often beginning in silence
and with the general confession of the people. The color used is deep
purple, signifying penitence and the mood of Lent. Learn
