Using this book, the children get to:

  • Understand what Great Lent is, how long it lasts for, and what some of its milestones are.
  • Explore the different ways in which we can grow spiritually during Lent (fasting, prayer, religious study, almsgiving).
  • Internalize the fundamentals of spiritual warfare, focusing on the Christian virtues and passions (for the older children).

A combination of the activity book and the Lenten resources available on our website can offer young learners a truly immersive learning experience. The book can also be used as a stand-alone teaching tool, at home, in class, or at a religious retreat.
