This Lady Lent hanging banner, made out of fleece fabric, based on the Greek Lenten tradition of Kira-Sarakosti. It works like an Advent calendar, to count down the weeks from Clean Monday to Pascha. Lady Lent’s feet are removable. Each Sunday of Great Lent one leg is removed and placed inside Lady’s pocket. When all the legs are gone, it is Pascha! Special thanks to Christina Romas – Connant, for giving us permission to use her poem “Easter is a special time” on the wall hanging. It is included in the children’s book Since God Loves you and You Know It… Sing Out Loud!, a wonderful teaching resource for young children.

This is a very easy DIY project and can be assembled with only scissors, glue, and velcro dots (to stick on and remove the feet). It was originally created in collaboration with St Tabitha’s Workshop. The set now comes with bonus digital activities, like a printable board game, jigsaw puzzle, word puzzle, play dough mat.
