Ash Wednesday, February 22, 2012

Today Charlotte and I went to a noon service at Community Christian Church on Main street here in Kansas City. We are wearing the ash smudge from 26 years of Ash Wednesdays' there at Community.

Since you are supposed to wear the smudge until it wears off we are fielding some questions (always a good thing). To be honest I didn't know that much about Ash Wednesday but I did get an email from someone who can explain it far better than I can.  Here's the link to the post What Lent Really Means

  1. Something I learned yesterday at church . . . most people say there are 40 days in Lent which confused me because there are actually 46 this year. Yesterday Dr. Hill pointed out that Sunday's are not included in the count for the days of Lent as they are considered 'mini-easters'.
