All Christians can participate in the penitential season of Lent.

The Catholic Church and many other Christians Churches follow the Biblical practice of Jesus Christ and the Jews in setting aside days where the entire Church fasts and prays as one in a attitude of constant renewal.

By the solemn forty days of Lent the Church unites herself each year to the mystery of Jesus in the desert and in spiritual preparation for the celebration of His Passion, Death, and Resurrection.

This season of penance is an intense moments of the Church's penitential practice and are particularly appropriate for spiritual exercises, penitential liturgies, pilgrimages as signs of penance, voluntary self-denial such as fasting and almsgiving, and charitable and missionary works.

For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, section 1438:

With love in Christ.

Protestants have 'B-itch Wednesday'. According to Protestants it is rude to belch or fart in public. Therefore, if they do not b-itch about something on Wednesdays, they will explode!
