Ash Wednesday Service

for 2 hours
St Chad's, Chadwell Heath
St Chad's Road, Chadwell Heath Romford, RM6 6JB, United Kingdom

Wednesday 5th March, at 7.30pm, in the church.

Each year, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent and is always 46 days before Easter Sunday. Lent is a 40-day season (not counting Sundays) marked by repentance, fasting, reflection, and, ultimately celebration. The 40-day period represents Christ’s time of temptation in the wilderness, where he fasted and where Satan tempted him. Lent asks believers to set aside a time each year for similar fasting, marking an intentional season of focus on Christ’s life, ministry, sacrifice, and resurrection.
