During the season of lent christians are expected to refrain from eating meat on Fridays and to also only have one meal on Good Friday. Individuals will often give something up that that creates a sacrifce such as candy, alcohol, or smoking. They are also expected to perform additional works of charity or engage in daily prayer.
give something up to remember how Jesus fasted for 40 day and 40 nights.

Lent is a time when many Christians prepare for Easter by observing a period of fasting, repentance, moderation and spiritual discipline. The purpose is to set aside time for reflection on Jesus Christ - his suffering and his sacrifice, his life, death, burial and resurrection.

You should stay in prayer and ask for Gods mercy and forgiveness. Also, send more time with prayer of the community. Live the ten Commandments. Also, fast from food to say you are sorry for our sins. Stay foucesed on loving God. Fast from food on the Fridays of Lent. Show mercy for those in need.

Do service hours. Give hints to people in need. These are a few things you can do
