Ash Wednesday is February 26, 2020.
We have Ashes on the Go for folks who can't make it to a service. Ministers will be placing ashes on peoples foreheads from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at Christ Church in the parking lot on the corner of Martin and Fremont streets. We will also have a 12 noon and 7 p.m. service that day. The ashes remind us of our deep need of God and God’s promise of bringing resurrection to things that are dead.
