It has long been the custom at the beginning of Lent to be marked in ashes with the sign of the cross. The ashes reminds that we are dust and so we need to turn to God and God’s creative power to heal the brokenness in our lives and make us new. That turning to God begins our journey into hope and our preparation for the celebration of Easter.

We’re offering Ashes to Go to the whole community on Ash Wednesday as a “drive-through devotional experience” because we want to share the blessing of this day with everyone. We all need God’s healing power all day long, every day!
