0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
0:23.8 | Hey there, Spouts. |
0:27.9 | Today is Wednesday, February 22nd, 2023. |
0:32.3 | As you likely know, today is also Ash Wednesday. |
0:36.4 | Today is the beginning of the Lenton season, |
0:41.0 | which is a super important time of preparation, |
0:48.4 | of just refinement so that we are able to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter. |
0:55.9 | So we're going to talk a lot about Lent and Ash Wednesday, but first, please join me in praying the Anama Christi. |
1:02.1 | In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, amen. Soul of Christ, sanctify me. |

2:03.2 | count all the days, you're probably going to realize that from today through Easter, |
2:07.6 | there's more than 40 days. And that is because Lent does not include the Sundays that we |
2:13.5 | celebrate during Lent. Because Sundays always are days for celebration of the resurrection. |
2:20.4 | So those days you are welcome to continue with your fasting and for sure your prayer. |
2:26.9 | But if you like, those are a little bit of a reprieve. |
2:30.3 | So we do have 40 days ahead of us. |
