Venue
Matlaske St Peter
Address
The Street Matlaske Norwich, NR11 7AQ, United Kingdom

Ash Wednesday service with Holy Communion.

Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent. Ashes made from palm crosses are blessed and are used to make crosses on people's foreheads. The custom dates back to the middle ages.

Ash Wednesday services set the tone for Lent, with sombre readings and hymns and a focus on penitence (saying sorry for and turning away from sin).

Matlaske St Peter

St Peter’s church in Matlaske lies in the middle of the rural area to the south of Holt. And even though this small village is only 6 miles away, it feels like a different world; especially on a sunny day.
