On Tuesday, Feb. 21, John Brown University’s Student Ministry Leadership Team hosted Taste and See: Pancakes and Preparation. The event provided an opportunity for students to hear from faculty and other students on how to prepare for and observe Lent. One of the speakers, senior Kevin Hernandez said, “I prepare for Lent thinking about myself and my weaknesses because those are the specific areas in which I know that I need to improve.” Hernandez, from the Catholic denomination, also said that lent is not about becoming a better person, but about growing closer to God.
