Today is Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, Shrove Tuesday, Fasnacht Tag, and many others.

Whatever you may call it, it is the day before Lent. In the Christian tradition, Lent is a forty-day period before Easter.  (Sundays are skipped in counting the forty days, because Sundays commemorate the Resurrection.)

We will be celebrating UU Lent with daily posts again this year. Here is the calendar. We hope you will join us on this spiritual journey.
