DESCRIPTION:Come and join us for our 12pm Said Eucharist Service for Ash W
 ednesday.\n\nAsh Wednesday is the first day of Lent. Ashes made from palm 
 crosses are blessed and are used to make crosses on people's foreheads. Th
 e custom dates back to the middle ages.\n\nAsh 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.\n\n"Remember that you are dust
 \, and to dust you shall return. Turn away from sin and be faithful to Chr
 ist."The season of Lent lasts for forty days (not including Sundays). It i
 s a time when Christians reflect and prepare for the celebrations of Easte
 r. Some people fast\, eat frugally or give up treats following the example
  of Jesus\, who fasted for forty days in the wilderness.\n\nPeople also gi
 ve to charity\, set aside time to study the Bible and meet with other Chri
 stians to reflect on Jesus' life and prepare for the events of Holy Week a
 nd Easter.
