ASH WEDNESDAY SERVICE

Guestling, St Laurence
Church Lane Guestling Hastings, TN35 4HS, United Kingdom

Ash Wednesday is a holy day of prayer and fasting. It is preceded by Shrove Tuesday and marks the first day of Lent, the six weeks of penitence before Easter. The ash used on Ash Wednesday is often made from palm crosses distributed in previous years, but any suitable material may be used. • Ash is often imposed on the forehead in the form of a cross.

Guestling, St Laurence

A warm welcome to the Parish Church of St. Laurence, Guestling where people have been worshipping God since Saxon times.

We are a traditional Anglican parish and we have the great privilege of meeting together for worship in a fine mediaeval building set in a beautiful corner of East Sussex.

We meet with God in prayer, in reading the Bible and in Holy Communion.

We'd love you to come along and share that experience with us, and we'd be pleased to welcome you. 

All are welcome.
