"Since the early days of the Church people who decide to become Christian are baptized on the night before Easter. They spend weeks preparing for this day. In Lent we unite with these people. We recall our baptism and the vows (promises) we made to reject Satan and sin. We remember how through the waters of baptism we were united with Jesus’s death and resurrection and were saved. Lent is a time to renew our baptismal vows and try to live our faith more strongly. It is a time to ask How am I living as God’s child?"
