Ash Wednesday in 2021

I was reminded today that I actually wrote the Introduction for A Rhythm of Prayer on Ash Wednesday last year. Never could have imagined how the year between then and now would look but I still pray these words for us all. We have had a year of Lent, may you be held in Love. https://t.co/fAsLtvYg2q

Today Mrs. Olson and 4M hosted a thoughtful and meaningful Ash Wednesday Liturgy. A beautiful cross was made for our school and each student hung a piece of fabric with with their hopes and prayers for forgiveness for the Lenten season . #CSSD_edu #ashwednesday https://t.co/pP4fEX1v9s

Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. For the Church, a day of penitence and fasting. The liturgy reminds us that 'dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return', as this eroded 15c wooden cadaver tomb at Keyston, Cambridgeshire seems to confirm. https://t.co/oe9xUg9dSo

Today, I join Christians around the world in observing Ash Wednesday. As we enter the season of Lent, we know this moment of repentance, reflection, and renewal comes in the midst of a painful winter. Let us look with hope and anticipation toward Easter and brighter days ahead.

Today, as a community of Faith had our Ash Wednesday liturgy. We focus on prayer, fasting and almsgiving as pillars of our Lenten Season. Repent and believe in the gospel. https://t.co/VLpEo5R6gj

Shrove Tuesday pancakes, followed by some Mardi Gras fun and a little change of heart today, on Ash Wednesday, as we are reminded to love one another and He has loved us! #blessed #Lent2021 #ecssdLOVE https://t.co/uDcQUP998F
