(Dilencongkan daripada Lent)
Pra-Paskah (Latin: Quadragesima , "[Hari] keempat puluh", bahasa Inggeris: Lent ) ialah perayaan keagamaan dalam kalender liturgi Kristian yang bermula pada hari Rabu Abu dan berakhir kira-kira enam minggu kemudian, malam sebelum Ahad Paskah. Tujuan Pra-Paskah ialah persiapan umat untuk Paskah melalui doa, melakukan penebusan dosa, mematikan daging, pertaubatan dosa, sedekah, dan penolakan diri. Musim ini disambut dalam Gereja Anglikan, Ortodoks Timur, Lutheran, Metodis, Moravia, Ortodoks Oriental, Reformed (termasuk Presbiterian), dan Gereja Katolik.[1][2][3] Beberapa gereja Anabaptis dan evangelis juga menyambut Pra-Paskah.[4][5]

This is the day Lent begins. Christians go to church to pray and have a cross drawn in yellow in ashes on their foreheads. The ashes drawn on ancient tradition represent repentance before God. The holiday is part of Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Methodist, and Episcopalian liturgies, among others.

Traditionally, Lent was not observed by the Mennonite church, and only recently have more modern Mennonite churches started to focus on the six-week season preceding Easter.
