Lenten Palms On February 22 we will celebrate Ash Wednesday and begin the Lenten season. Traditionally, the ashes distributed on this day are from the palms from the previous Palm Sunday. We invite parishioners to bring in their palms from last year. A box for the palms will be in the vestibule of the church. These palms will be burned and used for ashes on Ash Wednesday. |
