Lent
BY: Stalaane. A
We all know that Lent is 40 days fasting because Jesus didn't have food or water to eat or drink in the dessert. It starts when you get a cross made for ashes on your forehead to star the Lent event. So during this event we have to alms giving, fasting, and we pray to Jesus. Therefore when Jesus was in the desert for 40 days there was a devil who tried to make Jesus eat and drink but he refused to. He is immortal but his body was mortal. So I am fasting from all my electronics and meat on every Fridays. I am not going go all 40 days without food or something to drink I am only doing it on Fridays. We should start not being rude or mean to others. The 40 days doesn't include Sundays and it is until Easter which is the most important festival in this calendar of Christians. Lent starts on Ash Wednesday and the last week of Lent is called Holy week. Remember Lent is for giving up things. This is to remind people why Jesus went to the desert for 40 days. The day before Lent is Shrove Tuesday. It is also known as Pancake Tuesday and all catholic schools have this event before Lenten season.

  1. Hi Stalaane!
    What i like about your paragraph is that you talked about most of what Lent is about! Somethings that you can improve on is your topic sentences, they need to be more attention grabbing. Also, there were a few words that you mispelled. Otherwise, great job!
