Ash Wednesday Service

February 17, 2021 @ 7:00 pm

Join us for our Ash Wednesday Service as we begin the season of Lent with the Imposition of Ashes.

There is something powerful about a season that starts in the middle of the week, at night.  It suggests that the Lenten journey is a high calling, not for the faint of heart, not for the casual observer. It requires a level of commitment from the beginning. The mood is serious, but not oppressive. The ashes remind us of our mortality and our sinfulness, but they don’t crush us to the floor. They are received with a sense of hope and the confidence in the promise that brings us to this moment.  Let hope have the final word, even over our sin and our fragility. There must be some light of Resurrection that guides our steps, even as we take the first one.  Join us at 7pm as we begin our journey to the cross in 2021.

Nursery care is not available for this service
