observing lent at st. mark's

The season of Lent is a solemn period of 40 days, excluding Sundays, beginning Ash Wednesday and ending Easter Sunday.  During this time, we prepare ourselves through worship and a variety of spiritual and physical disciplines to remember the sacrifices made by Jesus to atone for our sins.  Lent culminates in Holy Week, a time of both deep sorrow and utmost joy as we remember and celebrate the suffering, death, burial, and miraculous resurrection of Christ Jesus.
