Ashes to Easter
The Journey of a Holy Lent
The early Christians devoutly observed Holy Week, the day of Jesus’ passion and resurrection, and the custom of the Church was to prepare for these Holy days with a season of repentance and fasting.
That season is Lent, and we begin it on Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2025 with prayer and imposition of ashes.
Lent is not about making ourselves good enough for God.
God already loves us.
Lent is about making room for God’s love in our lives.
May you take on those things which lead you closer to God and closer to your own true nature: beloved child of God.
