While many will be celebrating Valentine’s Day today, it is also an important day for many religions.
Today officially marks the beginning of the Lenten season with Ash Wednesday.
Lent is a 40 day span observed by many Christian religions leading up to Easter.
Ash Wednesday derives its name from the placing of repentance ashes on the foreheads of parishioners.
