Rhoqo ngonyaka amaKrismesi abhiyozela u-Ash ngoLwesithathu, usuku lokuzisola kunye nokuguquka okuphakathi kokungaphezulu kwe-Shrove Lwesibini kunye nokuziphatha okuqinileyo kweLent.
Usuku olungcwele lithatha igama laso kwisiko lokubeka uthuthu ebunzini labanquli kunye nesikhumbuzo sokuguquka.
Nantsi intsingiselo yomsitho wokubhiyozela, xa kusenzeka ngo-2020 kwaye kutheni abathembekileyo bephawulwe ngomlotha.
Yintoni uAsh ngoLwesithathu?
NgoLwesithathu u-Ash uhlala ewela ngosuku olulandelayo emva kweShrove ngoLwesibini, okanye uSuku lwePancake- oluhlala lubhiyozelwa kwiintsuku ezingama-47 ngaphambi kweCawe yePasika- kulo nyaka ngoFebruwari 25.
Ngokwesiko, abefundisi batshisa umthi wesundu kwinkonzo yonyaka ophelileyo yangeCawa yeSundu ukwenza umlotha ongaziwayo womsitho wenkonzo.
Umthendeleko uphawula ukuqala kweLente, ukugcinwa kwamaKristu kwebali leBhayibhile lokubaleka kukaYesu Krestu entlango kangangeentsuku ezingama-40.
Ngesi sizathu, uAsh ngoLwesithathu ulisiko ngemini yokuzila, ukungakhathali kunye nokuguquka, kunye namaKristu amaninzi ukunqabela kwanto ngaphandle kwesonka namanzi de kutshone ilanga.
Uthuthu lunentsingiselo yebhayibhile njengendlela yokubonisa iintlungu, zombini ngendlela yokulila nasekuvakaliseni iintlungu zezono neempazamo.
Ukusukela kumaxesha akudala, ke ngoko amaKristu ebewasebenzisa njengophawu lwangaphandle lwenguquko, kunye nokusetyenziswa kwawo malunga nokuqala kweLente esekwe ngamaXesha Aphakathi.
Isenzo sikhatshwa ngamagama athi "Guquka kwaye ukholelwe kwiVangeli" okanye "Khumbula ukuba uluthuli kwaye uya kubuyela kwaseluthulini," amabinzana enzelwe ukukhumbuza abanquli ngokusweleka kwabo kunye nesidingo sokuguquka.
ILent, indlela efinyeziweyo yelizwi lesiNgesi lakudala iLent elithetha "ixesha lasentwasahlobo", lihlala iintsuku ezingama-40 zokuzila (ngeCawa ngokubanzi azifakwanga ebudeni bexesha) phambi kokuba kufikelelwe kwiveki yePasika.
Kuxhomekeka kwihlelo, umhla wokuphela ungene ngolwesiThathu oNgcwele (Epreli 9), usuku olungaphambi koLwesihlanu Olungileyo okanye uMgqibelo oNgcwele (nge-11 ka-Epreli) ngorhatya lweCawa yePasika.
Isiseko sayo kwimibingelelo eyenziwe nguYesu kuthetha ukuba iLent ngokwesiko lixesha lokuyekiswa, kunye nabantu abaninzi abangamakristu baqhubeka nokungena kumoya wexesha ngokuyeka unyango olukhethekileyo.
Ngalo lonke eli xesha, abo bamakisha iLente baya kuzila ukutya okanye banikezele, kwaye abanye banokuya rhoqo ecaweni okanye benze umthandazo owongezelelweyo yonke imihla.
Ngethemba elibi leentsuku ezingama-40 zoqeqesho oluzayo, mhlawumbi bekungenakuphepheka ukuba iShrove ngoLwesibini ibe lithuba lokuphamba kunye nokuhlutha ubumnandi obuninzi kangangoko.

Ezinye izithethe eziphuhliswe nge-Shrove ngolwesiBini ngaphaya kokusetyenziswa gwenxa, njengemidlalo yebhola ekhatywayo engalawulekiyo e-UK eyaqala phaya kwinkulungwane ye-17.
Ngelixa inguqu kumthetho wenkulungwane ye-XNUMX ibenze ukuba bangaqhelekanga, imidlalo enje ngebhola le-Royal Shrovetide yeBhola yeAshborne iyaqhubeka nokubangela udaka, ubundlobongela kunye nesiphithiphithi jikelele minyaka le.
