Ash Wednesday:

The beginning of Lent

Next Wednesday, 2 March is Ash Wednesday, the first day of the Christian season of Lent.The marking of the Ashes on Ash Wednesday is an expression of our faith and a sign that we are asking God for forgiveness. It is a time of prayer, fasting and giving to others. Through prayer we come closer to God so that we are better able to realise our baptismal promise to live justly as Jesus teaches us. Fasting joins us in solidarity with the poor who often have no choice but to go without basic needs such as food, water and shelter. Giving to the poor or ‘almsgiving’ is a sign of our commitment to justice and our thanks for all that God has given us.

 

Lent prepares us for the season of Easter, the most important time in the Church’s calendar. By praying, fasting and giving alms, we are reminded of Jesus’ death and Resurrection. Jesus brought the promise of hope to all people so that we may “have life and have it to the full” (John 10:10), so that with our neighbours, we can go further, together. 

 

An Ash Wednesday Liturgy will be held at school for students and staff.
