Lent is the forty-day period before Easter when Christians reflect on Christ's sacrifice on the cross. It begins on Ash Wednesday and ends Holy Thursday for Roman Catholics, or the day before Easter in other churches. Sundays are skipped during Lent because they are always days of rejoicing to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The library is decorated with a Lenten Tree containing items symbolizing Holy Week. Stop by and see the many books, videos and DVDs on this subject on display around the library.
