Dear parents,
Next week, on February 22nd 2023, we will celebrate Ash Wednesday . Our parish will be having two Masses: 9:30a.m. & 7:00p.m.
Ash Wednesday begins the season of Lent, a time of sacrifice and repentance as we strive to turn our hearts to Jesus. The ashes we receive at church remind us of our mortality and the need to repent of our sins. The shape of the cross reminds us that we have a savior in Jesus Christ.
Remember, Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of “fast and abstinence” which means not eating meat, and eating only one main meal, and two smaller meals those days.
We look forward to entering the Lenten season with you!
