Lent 2026: Repent, Prepare, Connect!

Lent is a 40-day season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving that begins on Ash Wednesday (February 18) and ends at sundown on Holy Thursday (April 2). It's a period of preparation to celebrate the Lord's Resurrection at Easter. Join the Basilica Family as we journey together through Lent and grow closer to the Lord individually and as a parish.
