Lent is a 40-day season of preparation for Easter, from Ash Wednesday to Holy Saturday. It commemorates Jesus’ time fasting in the desert, focusing on repentance, self-reflection and spiritual discipline.

This year we are going to read through the Gospel of Mark, reflect on the life of Jesus and how we can respond.

Each Monday, we'll give you the readings for the coming week.
