How do Baptists celebrate Lent?
They don't. Baptists do not observe Lent with the same reverence that members of the Roman Catholic, Lutheran and some levels of Anglican/Episcopalian churches do. Also, it would be an improper use of the word "celebrate". It is more an "observance", that is, a time of reflection on the depth and greatness of Jesus's sacrifice for us.

What are the differences between Episcopalian and Baptist?
Episcopalian has some church hierarchy (bishops, etc.). I don't think that Baptists have a church hierarchy. There is a Baptist hierarchy within the church consisting of the Pastor and selected Deacons; however, if you are refering to a hierarchy within the denomination, then no, there is not a Baptist hierarchy.

The ANGLICAN church IS protestant but not as protestant as its breakaways, i.e. Methodists, Baptists or the Calvinist Presbyterians who considered Anglicans too papish, at least in appearance if not in practice.
What were Protestants who wanted to leave and find their own churches?

Is a vicar Catholic or Anglican?
A vicar is a what a parish priest is called in the Anglican Church. Non-conformist churches, Episcopalians, Baptists, Methodists, URC, Pentecostals and so on use the title minister. Although not often found in Catholic churches in years past, parochial vicar is nowadays being used more and more as the term for what used to be called parish priest.
