In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God (John 1:1)

"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"  Book of Common Prayer
