Prayers for Lent and Advent Avis

While we typically regard Advent as a joyous season, it is also intended to be a period of preparation, much like Lent.

Advent is a season observed in many Christian churches as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Jesus at Christmas.

Lent is the period of 40 days which comes before Easter in the Christian calendar.

This app presents a series of prayers, one for each day of the Lenten/Advent period to help you grow in your relationship with God and to deepen your commitment to a way of life that stems from our baptism.

By observing the 40 days of Lent, Christians replicate Jesus Christ's sacrifice and withdrawal into the desert for 40 days.

Beginning on Ash Wednesday, Lent is a season of reflection and preparation before the celebrations of Easter.

The goal of every Christian is to leave Lent a stronger and more vital person of faith than when we entered.

In our busy world, Lent/Advent provides us with an opportunity to reflect upon our patterns, to pray more deeply, experience sorrow for what we've done and failed to do, and to be generous to those in need.

Advent comes from the Latin word meaning "coming" and Jesus is coming.

Each year the Church observes Lent where we, like Israel and our Lord, are tested.
