I’m a big fan of Lent because I make time for a project designed to enlighten me in some way — although this year I’m just trying to give up bronchitis for Lent.
But I wanted to make sure you knew about Lent Madness — one gets to vote for one’s favorite saint from a series of match-ups (to see who will win the Golden Halo — very exciting). See http://www.lentmadness.org/ for more info. For example, today we were presented with the pair of Alcuin vs. Edessa. Who knew that under Alcuin’s influence, Charlemagne became a slightly more tolerant person? Your pencil-enhanced Ash Wed. smudge emboldened me to share this with you. Cheers!

The Fr. who gave you your ashes has a giant thumb.
