Ash Wednesday 2024 is Valentine's Day


February 14th, a week from tomorrow, is Ash Wednesday.

How fitting that Ash Wednesday this year should fall on the popular feast of Saint Valentine's Day, that we might do penance for our disordered affections! and for our sexual sins, and for those same sins of disordered sensuality of all men throughout the whole world, making reparation in union with the Passion and Death of our Sweet Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on the Cross!

Memento homo quia pulvus es, et in pulverem reverteris! (Genesis 3:19)
