Ash Wednesday

Wednesday 18 February 2026, Wednesday 10 February 2027 Wednesday at for 1 hour
All Saints Kingston
The Market Place Kingston upon Thames, KT1 1JP, United Kingdom

Please join us for this special Choral Eucharist for Ash Wednesday which will include the imposition of ashes.

Please note that this service replaces our usual 5.30pm Evensong.

Ash Wednesday is the English name for the first day of Lent, stemming from the tradition of making the sign of the Cross, in ash, as a sign of penitence. Penitence takes a central place in the liturgy as a response to Scripture and preaching. The use of ash – a feature of this day in the Western church since at least the tenth century – is a powerful symbol of sorrow for our sins, a reminder of our frailty and, ultimately, our mortality
