Lent begins tomorrow with Ash Wednesday

Continues for 40 days until Easter weekend. Practicing Christians these also entails prayer, fasting and giving alms to the poor.

This year the celebration for Lent will begin withAsh Wednesday on 2 March and will culminate with Easter Sunday on April 17. During the 40 day period of Lent, Christians seek the Lord in prayer by reading sacred scripture and repenting on past sins. Lent is a period of almsgiving and somber reflection.

Hated this period, no instruments in church, then I don’t know who had told my grands no meat on Fridays

My friend what is Biblical foundation of this practice? All the activities are good but the lent and Easter might not have Biblical foundations… Or do they? I never thought that you were catholic…

:smiley:
Dhulma za kidini.

Ndio ukakuwa long horn. Puhahaha.

I don’t know. Si you are a catholic ama?

No. I am not Catholic… Perhaps we should start a thread on Bible study… for those people who believe in it’s teachings and follow Jesus Christ… I read the Bible and every time I read, I find some intriguing things that are worthy sharing… not from any Christian denomination at all… just Bible Study…

Some guy told me twende service I asked whose ashes are those. He had no answers. I was like negro Nikita taka mauchawi, I know Wea to go in Malindi sio kwa kanisani. I’m sure he’ll never talk to me again. Are those ashes za dead priests ama ni nini? We had to do that shit in orimo compulsory mpaka wahindi.
