An Ash Wednesday Eucharist

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
All Saints
Address
All Saints Church, Church Street, Goxhill, North Lincolnshire, DN19 7HX, United Kingdom

The season of Lent begins today and lasts for forty days (excluding Sundays). It is a time when Christians reflect and prepare for the celebrations of Easter. Some people fast, eat frugally or give up treats following the example of Jesus, who fasted for forty days in the wilderness.
People also give to charity, set aside time to study the Bible and meet with other Christians to reflect on Jesus' life and prepare for the events of Holy Week and Easter.
Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent. Ashes made from palm crosses are blessed and are used to make crosses on people's foreheads. The custom dates back to the middle ages.
Ash Wednesday services set the tone for Lent, with sombre readings and hymns and a focus on penitence (saying sorry for and turning away from sin).

"Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return. Turn away from sin and be faithful to Christ."
