Lent Madness is a unique Lenten devotion, combining a love of sports with a passion for the lives of the saints. 32 saints are placed into a tournament-like single elimination bracket. Each pairing remains open for a set period of time and Lent Madness participants learn about and vote for their favorite saint. 16 saints make it to the next round, and so on, until the winner is awarded the Golden Halo.
