“With Christians all over the world, we will gather for solemn and sacred worship.” said Rev. Henry. ”Together we will experience a time of confession and receive ashes on our foreheads as a reminder of our own sinfulness and mortality. We also receive the joy that comes with the assurance of God’s forgiveness and the opportunity for a new beginning. This service is truly one of the most moving worship experiences, and a stirring way to begin the season and look forward to Easter.”
