In this video, we learn all about what Lent is and what Christians do during this period. Lent is the six-week period before Easter observed by many Christians. It commemorates the 40 days during which Jesus fasted and resisted temptation from Satan.
Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, the day after Shrove Tuesday, and six weeks before Easter. It ends on Holy Saturday, the day before Easter. Lent is 40 days long, as Sundays are not counted.
