About the Event
"Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return."
With this reminder of our numbered days, we enter the season of Lent. The ashes applied to our foreheads call us, and others, to reflect, repent, and grieve even as we look forward to the rebirth of Easter.
We are observing the beginning of the Lenten season a little differently this year. Our Ash Wednesday gathering will be online, 30 minutes long, and held during the lunch hour. "But if the service is online how will I get my ashes?" you are wondering. We are going to send them to you in the LITERAL MAIL. Reply to erin@oaklandcommonwealth.com by February 23 to get your ashes - even if you aren't able to attend the service!
