February 26th Lent Begins ~ Ash Wednesday



12 noon - Ash Wednesday Service and Distribution of Ashes

4 pm - Distribution of Ashes at Bishop White Lodge

6:30 pm - Ash Wednesday Service and Distribution of Ashes


Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent with a special liturgy that invites the congregation into a season of reflective self-examination in preparation for Easter. The emphasis on mortality is not intended to be morbid, but rather to focus our attention on the context in which we and all creation encounter the power of resurrection.
