It ends the same day as the Roman Catholic lent- the day before Easter. But it starts the Monday before Ash Wednesday. And the requirements are much different.

Do you have to be Catholic to participate in Lent?

No, you do not have to be a Catholic to participate in Lent.Roman Catholic AnswerAs Lent is for the purpose of preparing for the death and resurrection of the Savior during the Easter Triduum, and I think the best preparation for receiving our Blessed Lord would be to start at the beginning, then, I should think that becoming Catholic would be the first step. This is why the RCIA classes end in Lent and the catechumens are brought into the Church at the Easter Vigil.

Why do the Catholic churches cover the saints during Lent?

Usually, the cross is not covered except on Good Friday and then it is slowly uncovered for the adoration of the cross. In the pre-Vatican II church it was common practice to cover all statues in the church during Lent. Some churches still observe this today. Lent is meant to be a time of penance and deprivation. Covering the statues and allowing for little or no adornment of the church helps us focus on the coming passion and death of Our Lord. The Easter Vigil Mass marks the end of Lent and celebrates the glorious resurrection of Our Lord and the church is once more decorated in spectacular fashion.
