Join us for a Holy Communion service to mark the start of lent. During the service the mark of the cross will be made on everyone's forehead. The ashes are made from palm crosses which are associated with the start of Holy Week with Palm Sunday. This is a very special way to start the period of lent, and everyone is welcome to attend.
