"New Life" ... Happy Easter!


"New Life" ... Happy Easter!
 
The word Lent comes from the Anglo-Saxon word for springtime "lencten” which describes the gradual lengthening of daylight after the winter solstice. 
 
Thus, closely associated with the transition from winter to spring is the Lenten Season – the period of preparation for in the death and resurrection of Christ at Easter.  Consequently, as part of our Catholic faith and traditions, we believe that from the sacred and blessed event of Easter stems or springs new life.
