Ash Wednesday is on Wednesday, Feb. 22. Catholics mark this day by fasting and abstaining from meat. They mark their forehead with ashes as a sign of a desire to repent and to turn their hearts towards God.
Ash Wednesday begins the season of Lent, a season of repentance and renewal leading up to Easter.
