Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the solemn season of Lent, a time for reflection, repentance, and spiritual renewal. Join us in embracing this meaningful day as ashes are received, symbolizing humility and mortality. As we enter this period of self-examination, let Ash Wednesday be a reminder of our shared humanity and the opportunity for personal growth. Participate in this solemn observance, acknowledging the ashes as a symbol of penance and a commitment to a more meaningful and reflective journey leading up to Easter.
