Lent begins on Wednesday, March 2. The Cathedral will offer two Ash Wednesday services, one at 12.15 p.m. and one at 6.00 p.m. The evening service will also be livestreamed, at christchurchcathedral.bc.ca/live. This year, our COVID protocols do permit the imposition of ashes.
Attending an Ash Wednesday service is a great way to stake out a season of spiritual renewal, and the 40 days of Lent afford us both the time to get some things right in our lives, and the encouragement of knowing that we are part of a great company of people doing the same thing.
