How is it celebrated?
During church services, clergy use ashes burned at the previous
years Palm Sunday mixed with holy water or olive oil to mark a
cross on a worshippers forehead as a sign of repentance.
This is to signify the Biblical passage in Genesis 3:19: For dust
you are and to dust you shall return.
Why is it 46 days before Easter, and not 40?
Although Lent lasts for six weeks, Sundays are not included as
they are considered a day for worship and rest.
