Lent Begins
Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of the celebration of the season of
Lent.
Lent is that Christian liturgical season of 40 days that remembers Jesus of Nazareth's life, his death, and, at Easter, his Resurrection.
As a reminder of his last three days, the Catholic Church often prays the Stations of the Cross.
