Why is Lent celebrated as a church?

lent is the 40 days that Jesus fasted in the wilderness. that's when the devil tempted Him. look in Matthew,Mark,or Luke. i think John has it to if Luke doesn't. during the 40 days of lent, most people give up something they love like chocolate or soda or TV. i do it every year and it's hard at first, but you get used to it. then when the 40 days are up, you can have that thing that you gave up. just remember that you don't have to give something up, we as Christians do it as a reminder of what Jesus did for us.


How do you observe Lent?

Lent starts on Ash Wednesday and ends on Easter sunday. To participate in Lent in the Catholic religion, you have to fast, or give up, meat on Ash Wednesday and every Friday until Easter Sunday. Also, if you are not a small child, you have to give up something additional. You have to give up something that could harm you or be bad for anyone in some way. For example, you could give up TV or video games. i am giving up meat for the whole lent instead of just fridays. i am also going to stop gossiping because it could hurt others. Lent in Christianity means giving up dairy for the whole lent i think. Im not sure about Christianinity because i am not Christian, but i am positive for Catholicism.
