Ash Wednesday Holy Eucharist Services |
Wednesday, March 5 at 12 pm & 7 pm |
|
|
Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent: a time of fasting, prayer, self-examination and preparation for the Easter Feast. Join us for a service of Holy Eucharist that includes the imposition of ashes, an ancient sign of repentance that serves as a reminder of our mortality. The 12 pm service features contemporary music and the 7 pm service features traditional music. Incense is used at both services. Passes are not required. |
