[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have volunteer work this Wednesday and SR will stop by to distribute ashes at the office. I know my volunteer supervisor and some of team members might keep ashes on. Should I say “Happy Ash Wednesday?” Does “Have a good lent” sound more appropriate? Or should  I not say anything at all? Sorry for being clueless but would like to be polite when I see them this Wednesday. Thank you for your help![/quote]

"Have a good lent"?!  This is too stupid for words.  
Say nothing.

Don’t listen to this troll trying to make Catholics look bigoted.  Saying “Happy Lent” is completely fine. It is a day to practice humility and generosity.  It isn’t a time that people will be easily offended.

I’m a Catholic. Not this poster but a Catholic. Happy Lent is inappropriate and verges on disrespectful because you don’t know anything about my religion but decide to throw a “happy” in front of Lent because you couldn’t be bothered to learn anything about it. PP, I may not speak for all Catholics but you don’t either…[/quote]

Perhaps you need to work a little on humility and providing some grace to others this Lenten season.  Someone who says that isn’t looking to offend you.  They are looking to be kind.  [/quote]
