30 Funniest Ash Wednesday Memes, You Know, If You Didn’t Give Memes Up For Lent

I grew up Catholic and even went to Catholic school, which, ironically, is probably what cured me of taking any of it too seriously.

That said, Ash Wednesday still sneaks up on me every year with a weird mix of nostalgia and mild guilt, usually right around the time I realize I absolutely did not give up memes for Lent. Some habits are just too sacred.

These Ash Wednesday memes perfectly capture that chaotic blend of tradition, self-awareness, and humor that comes from growing up with it all.

It doesn’t matter if you’re observing the season or just here for the jokes, consider this your reminder that a little laughter never hurt anybody’s spiritual journey.
