The Catholic Accent is sponsoring a Lenten food contest throughout the season of Lent, which begins Ash Wednesday, February 17.

Which diocesan parish fries or bakes the tastiest fish or prepares the most savory peroghi or haluski? You decide!

Cast your vote and hook a winning meal. Three entries will be randomly selected to win a 2011 Lenten dinner at a parish of choice. Please be sure to include your name and telephone number on your submitted entry form for consideration.

Vote anytime before April 1 by filling out the contest form online or return the entry form included in the newspaper. Parish winners will be announced in The Catholic Accent and on our site and will receive an award certificate.

Throughout the season of Lent, parishioners will have the opportunity to reflect upon their blessings and share them through the Diocesan Lenten Appeal (DLA) and "Today’s Challenge ~ Tomorrow’s Hope" Capital & Endowment Campaign for the Diocese of Greensburg (TCTH). Read more.
