Ash Wednesday

It hardly seems like Christmas is over, yet tomorrow (yes, tomorrow!) sees the start of Lent with Ash Wednesday . There will be Mass and distribution of ashes at 8am, 10am and 7.30pm. By the way, ever wondered what the ash is made from? After all, something has to have been burned to make the ashes. Well, now you know what happened to last year's palm leaves that were waved in re-enactment of Christ's entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday . That's the Church in a nutshell: everything is connected, great and small.
