This year (2024), Ash Wednesday (the first day of Lent for many Christians) falls on February 14th, which is also Valentine's Day.

How will you celebrate that day?

Ash Wenesday

Both Ash Wednesday and Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day

Neither

Doing both technically. Ash Wednesday will be first and then the evening with the girl.

Ash Wednesday. I don't do Valentine's day. Never have done

[Massageman]

We'll probably have a nice dinner tonight to avoid the crowds tomorrow.

Ash Wednesday takes priority.

As a non-practicing Catholic, I did celebrate Easter but due to the laws of the church, I cannot receive communion. As a child I never had my first communion, and so on. Once, my sister made me get up in church to receive it, and said, God would be ok with it. I agree with her. Needless to say, I respect the rituals, like Ash Wednesday.

I'm not religious so I don't do the whole putting ash on your forehead thing as for giving things up for lent sod that.
