This month's words search

 

Lent lasts for 40 days.  Sundays in Lent are ‘oases’; as Sunday is never a day of fasting, but a weekly celebration of the resurrection of Jesus.  Christians have used Lent as their ‘40 days in the wilderness’, when they set aside the indulgences of life and instead look inward, seeking spiritual renewal and growth.  Lent looks towards the Cross and the Empty Tomb, with the assurance of redemption and new life in Christ.  The daffodils in our gardens are golden trumpets to proclaim the wonderful message of Easter! The English word for Lent is not at all religious; it is an abbreviation of the Old English word ‘lencten’, or ‘lengthen’.  At last winter is over, and the days are getting longer
