Ash Wednesday

The universal Church begins the holy season of lent with Ash Wednesday. Today is marked by a degree of somber repentance for the sins we have committed while also trusting completely in the mercy of God. May this holy season assist people everywhere in moral conversion for we are dust and to dust we shall return.
