A Lenten calendar or Lent calendar is a special calendar used by
Western Christians to count the days of
Lent in anticipation of
Easter. Lenten calendars traditionally start on
Ash Wednesday and conclude on Easter Day. As with an
Advent calendar, a Lenten calendar often has windows or flaps containing "a
scriptural verse for each day, a reflection question, and an action that is appropriate and achievable".[1] The Bible verse for the day is frequently accompanied by an image relating to Lent.[2] Christians often use Lenten calendars as a part of their
Lenten devotions.[3]
