Imposition of Ashes and Quiet Communion

for 45 mins
St Nicholas' Church, Brushford
Brushford New Road Brushford, TA22 9AP, United Kingdom

The Imposition of Ashes combined with a Quiet Communion is a solemn, reflective Christian service marking the beginning of Lent on Ash Wednesday. It blends the ancient, penitential ritual of receiving ashes with the meditative, subdued celebration of the Eucharist, offering a space for reflection, repentance, and preparation for Easter.

St John the Baptist, Skilgate

The church, dedicated to St John the Baptist has a loyal congregation though off the beaten track it is a wonderful place, once discovered, to sit, pray and think in the silence of the countryside.

The village of Skilgate, set in the Brendon Hills, is a small supportive rural community, and like the other parishes in this benefice, has farming at its heart.
