Holy Week and Easter Day
The season of Lent, the time during which Christians prepare for Easter, begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday. The earliest Christians observed Lent through fasting and prayer in commemoration of Jesus’ own temptations, His entry into Jerusalem, and His Passion and death. The season of Easter (sometimes called “Eastertide”) begins on Easter Day, the Resurrection of the Lord.
