Ash Wednesday is a day of fasting and reflection in the Episcopal Church. It marks the beginning of Lent, a 40-day period of preparation for Easter.
Worshipers receive ashes on their foreheads in a sign of penitence and mortality. It is a time to receive God's grace and adopt an attitude of humility.
Ash Wednesday is a reminder that we are dust and that God loves us even in our dustiness. It is also a day to stop and reflect on who we are.
