Lent is the liturgical season leading up to Easter, the feast of the resurrection of Christ. But the resurrection could not have taken place unless Christ first died, and His death is celebrated on Good Friday, the second-last day of the season of Lent. His suffering and death redeemed us from our sins so that we might rise again as He did. This redemptive suffering was so great that we recall it in a special way, through liturgical celebrations, prayer and penance, for forty days each year before beginning to celebrate His resurrection anew. Because Christ suffered for our sins, many people also take on voluntary penance during this time in atonement for their sins.
