“Ash Wednesday, March 18, marks the beginning of the church calendar season of Lent.” said Senior Pastor Christopher Henry. “With Christians all over the world, we will gather for solemn and sacred worship. 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.”
