Ash Wednesday (2022)

While our churches are expected to be permitted to offer Masses on Ash Wednesday, Bishop Dowd is encouraging all Catholics to celebrate Ash Wednesday –  the beginning of Lent. Parishioners who cannot attend Mass on Ash Wednesday are asked to go to the parish (between March 2^nd and March 18) to pick up blessed ashes and a prayer service brochure, and pray at home with the members of your household.
