Imposition of Ashes

Ash Wednesday

February 17, 2021
7:30 - 8:30am

We will be having a come and go service in the Central Campus sanctuary for the Imposition of Ashes. The use of ashes as a sign of mortality and repentance has a long history in Jewish and Christian worship, and the Imposition of Ashes can be a powerful nonverbal and experiential way of participating in the call to repentance and reconciliation. This practice is the historic focus of Ash Wednesday observance and gave the day its name.
