Ash Wednesday

Wednesday, March 5, 2025, is Ash Wednesday. While this day is not a Holy Day of Obligation, it is a day of fasting and prayer. Over the next few days, take time to reflect on Jesus’ 40 Day journey in the desert. Does one day of fasting compare?  

Dear Lord, as we prepare to enter the Solemn and Holy Season of Lent, we pray that you would send your Holy Spirit upon us so that we might prepare ourselves for these coming 40 days. Help us to humble ourselves so that we can understand the magnificence of Your Love for us as, You humbled Yourself and gave Your Life on the Cross that we might receive the gift of Eternal Glory with You. Amen
