Ash Wednesday marks the start of the season of Lent, when we symbolically walk with Jesus on his journey toward his crucifixion and resurrection, contemplating our own need for mercy and salvation. For centuries, Christians have gathered on Ash Wednesday to receive a cross of ashes on their foreheads as a symbol of repentance. Join us in our sanctuary at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 5, as we begin our Lenten journeys.
