Ashes to Go
March 5, 6:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.
On this Ash Wednesday, receive the blessing of ashes with the sign of the cross on your forehead and the Biblical reminder, "Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return." The ashes used are from last year's palms from Palm Sunday. It's our annual reminder that we will die one day and return to the dust of the earth.
In addition to traditional Ash Wednesday church services at 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., ashes will be dispensed from the parking lot all day. Any free-will offerings will be forwarded to Episcopal Relief and Development for disaster relief.
