'''Great Lent''' is the period of preparation leading up to [[Holy Week]] and [[Pascha]]. The divine services of Great Lent are governed by the [[Lenten Triodion]].
Following [[Meatfare Sunday]], meats are removed from the diet. Following [[Cheesefare Sunday]] (also known as [[Forgiveness Sunday]]), dairy is removed, initiating the strict [[fasting]] of Great Lent.
