Observed 40 days before Easter (excluding Sundays), Ash Wednesday is the beginning of Lent in Christianity. This period represents Christ's time in the wilderness where he fasted and faced temptation. Oftentimes, during this period, different groups of Christians cease to use certain comforts or make a similar resolution to give something up or do something special for the period of Lent.
This year Ash Wednesday falls on February 26, 2020. Williston Federated Church 44 North Williston Rd, will hold a brief Ash Wednesday Worship Service beginning at 6:45pm.
For those who may not be able to attend this service, Pastor Paul Eyer will be available to administer "Ashes on the Go" from 5:30 – 6:30pm. Look for signs to the Sanctuary.
All are welcome!
