Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent. The name comes from the practice of placing a small cross of ash on people’s foreheads during church services, symbolizing confession and a reminder of our dependence on God's forgiveness. This tradition often uses ashes from the previous year's Palm Sunday branches. Join us for our Ash Wednesday service at 7:00 pm.
