As we stand on the threshold of Lent, it's easy to get caught up in what we should give up or what rules we should follow. But this season isn't about deprivation or rigid adherence to regulations. It's about something far more profound: understanding the depth of God's love for us.

<h1>The Sunday Before Lent: A Journey of Love, Not Rules</h1>

Title

Saturday of the Souls, known in many Orthodox traditions as Psychosabbaton, is a solemn set of commemorations dedicated to all the departed who have fallen asleep in the hope of the Resurrection. While the Orthodox Church prays for the dead throughout the year, these Saturdays assume heightened significance during Holy Lent, weaving remembrance of the departed into the Church’s season of repentance, fasting, and spiritual renewal.
