ashes to ashes
The Season of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, the 7th Wednesday before Easter. This is commonly observed by the Roman Church, Anglicans and Lutherans. During Lent Christians are encouraged to fast, pray, give alms and seek repentance for their sins. Some Christians abstain from various foods.
We are reminded on Ash Wednesday that during Lent the focus should be the sacrifice of Christ and the mission of the Church. As the Lord established an annual day of repentance for the Israelites as in the Day of Atonement, (Lev 6), the church continues in the tradition of marking ash crosses on the foreheads of the faithful on Ash Wednesday as we remember that we will return “Dust to dust, ashes to ashes”
