reason of Lent will be
at All Saints' Church
i . zzung next Wednesday.
Lent is a time of fasting and
-'. : denial. It begins with Ash
iWdnesday and ends with the
Saturday preceding Easter, Sun
lays are not included. It com
memorates the forty days fasting
of Our Lord in the wilderness,
and His tempation by Satan.
Because of facts and acts of self
denial, it is preemintly the sea
son of spiritual revival in the
church. Moses, Elijah and Our
Ford each fasted forty days and
many contend that this accounts
of the forty days of Lent.
It is an interesting fact that
nations anil individual in all age
and in all parts of the world
have abst rved days of fasting
and prayer, Ninevites, the Jews,
'the Mohammadans etc, and his
tory of the Christian Church
