Q: When does Lent begin?

A: Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, which is the day on which they faithful have their foreheads signed with ashes in the form of a Cross (see piece on Ash Wednesday). It is also a day of fast and abstinence.

Did you also post something on here about Ash Wednesday or are you talking about something included in this article?

I was talking about it, but did not find it when I went back to search for the Lent (this) one. I will look further tomorrow.

I have a Bible-study (really it's a faith-sharing) group to lead tonight so I don't think I will have time to search for it unless it is later tonight.

Bye for now.
