Feb. 18 will mark the beginning of Lent, a time when Catholics fast, reflect, and focus on strengthening their relationship with God.

As we approach the Lent season, seafood dining options often become top of mind for many consumers. With deep roots in the Friday fish fry tradition, Culver’s full lineup of seafood is perfect for any seasonal Lent stories and roundups you may be working on.

Baked, fried, with a side of fries, macaroni and cheese or stewed tomatoes — no matter how it’s served, Friday fish dinners during the Lenten season draw in customers, helping area fire companies, churches and other organizations raise money for programs.

The San Antonio chain has announced the return of the Whatacatch Sandwich and Whatacatch Platter, which feature wild-caught Alaskan pollock fillets.

A chorus from the 1971 musical “Godspell” offers another daily prayer: “To see thee more clearly, love thee more dearly, follow thee more nearly, day by day.” May these be your prayers during the upcoming Lenten season and throughout the coming year.
