St. Gregory's invites you to join in the keeping of a holy Lent, beginning with Ash Wednesday on March 2. Services are at 8:00 a.m., noon, and 6:00 p.m. The 6:00 p.m. service will have music and will be livestreamed, with child care provided for those who attend in person. All are welcome to journey with us as we embark on this season of reflection, repentance, and renewal.
For those who will be observing Ash Wednesday through worship online at our Ash Wednesday 6PM service, please know that you can still receive ashes for use away from church. Ashes will be on a small table in front of the church office doors this afternoon and all day tomorrow in small metal containers. Each container contains enough ashes for 2-4 persons.
To make use of the ashes, simply worship with us at 6PM online on our YouTube channel. At the Imposition of Ashes in the service, simply dip your thumb lightly in a small amount of oil (such as olive or an essential oil). Then press your thumb into the ashes, before applying them on the skin of your forehead (and that of others, if applicable) in the shape of a cross.
