CARNIVAL, LENT AND HOLY WEEK TRADITIONS (3) HOLY WEEK FAITH AND TRADITION The Holy Week opens on Palm Sunday and culminates on Easter Sunday.

PALM SUNDAY Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Short processions are held from small chapels to the parish church, while olive and palm branches are blessed. Participants GOOD FRIDAY take the blessed cuttings home as a means Good Friday commemorates the crucifixion and of protection. death of Christ. As a sign of mourning, flags are lowered half mast, while the ringing of bells is replaced by the rattling of a large wooden drum called ‘ċuqlajta’. The devotion of the seven visits persists throughout the morning. No Holy Masses are celebrated on the day. Instead, a liturgical function is celebrated in the afternoon. Processions with life-size effigies are organized in twelve localities in Malta and four in Gozo.

LENT the Season of Lent
LENT Following is the invitation to the observance of a holy Lent as stated in the Book of Common Prayer, pages 264-265: Dear People of God: The first Christians observed with great devotion the days of our Lord's passion and resurrection, and it became the custom of the Church to prepare for them by a season of penitence and fasting. This season of Lent provided a time in which converts to the faith were prepared for Holy Baptism. It was also a time when those who, because of notorious sins, had been separated from the body of the faithful were reconciled by penitence and forgiveness, and restored to the fellowship of the Church. Thereby, the whole congregation was put in mind of the message of pardon and absolution set forth in the Gospel of our Savior, and of the need which all Christians continually have to renew their repentance and faith. I invite you, therefore, in the name of the Church, to the observance of a holy Lent, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer, fasting, and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God's holy Word. And, to make a right beginning of repentance, and as a mark of our mortal nature, let us now kneel before the Lord, our maker and redeemer. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Below is an explanatory essay on the Season of Lent by Dennis Bratcher. The Season of Lent Lent Carnival/Mardi Gras Ash Wednesday The Journey of Lent Reflections on Lent The season of Lent has not been well observed in much of evangelical Christianity, largely because it was associated with "high church" liturgical worship that some churches were eager to reject.

Rules of Fasting and Abstinence Parish Lenten Devotions & Opportunities
Lent calls us to repent of all that obscures God’s life within us and to believe in the Good News of the Gospel: the Good News of the forgiveness that is offered, the Good News of God’s love that is greater than anything we have done or failed to do, the Good News of the eternal life that has already begun for us through the Death and Resurrection of Jesus and in which we share through Baptism. Lent calls us to life: to become more and more in touch with the reality of God’s life within us, to awaken to the glorious destiny that is ours and to hasten toward it. Know that Lent is not so much about what we do for God…as it is about what God wishes to do for us: re-creating us in his love and life. Our sacrifices, our Lenten practices are important, yes, for they help us to focus on God; our acts of self-denial create an opening for God’s creative work in us. It is this new life—our life recreated in and by the Risen Christ—that we will celebrate at Easter. Enter, then, into these forty days with joy. RULES OF FASTING AND ABSTINENCE A reminder to parishioners that fasting is about more than denying ourselves food. A deeper understanding of fasting is about emptying oneself of the thing that distracts us from God. It’s about self-sacrifice to allow God to fill us. Fasting should never be an unhealthy practice. A broader perspective of fasting would include providing simpler meals, giving of our excess to charity.

The Christian and Not-So Christian Calendar from Christmas to Pentecost
The Christian and not-so Christian Calendar from Christmas to Pentecost A Bible Study By Bishop Jerry Hutchins Kingdom Now Church Snellville, Ga. Understanding Celebrations from Christmas to Pentecost • Epiphany • Carnival • Fat Tuesday • Ash Wednesday • Lent • Palm Sunday • Passover • Maundy Thursday • Good Friday • Resurrection Sunday • Ascension Day • Pentecost Epiphany • Epiphany, January 6, is the official end of the Christmas season, but it also kicks off Carnival season. • Epiphany day is 12 days after Christmas. • Some people fast during the 12 days and then celebrate the Epiphany feast on January 6th. January 6 until Fat Tuesday Carnival • Carnival is a festival held in many, predominately Roman Catholic, countries in the days leading up to Lent. • In contrast to the Lenten season’s forty-day focus on fasting and self-denial, Carnival is a time of excess and self- indulgence—a time to “eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we diet.” • Carnival is the indulgence before the fast, one last binge before having to give something up for forty days. • The most famous Carnival is held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, every year. Other Carnivals are held in Italy, Venice, Uruguay, and Spain, as well as in other parts of Brazil. In the United States, the events leading to Mardi Gras are the equivalent of Carnival. Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras • Mardi Gras, which is French for “Fat Tuesday,” is the last day of a season called “Carnival.” The Carnival season is characterized by merrymaking, feasting, and dancing. • Mardi Gras is the culmination of festivities and features parades, masquerades, and, unfortunately, often drunkenness and shameless debauchery.
