We gathered as a school community on Ash Wednesday to mark the beginning of Lent.
The Lenten season is a time for fasting and reflection over the 40 days until Easter.
We are called into Lent by being signed with ashes, reminding us of God’s mercy in the challenge to simplify our lives and turn to the Gospel on the journey to Easter.
Lent is a time of growth and renewal for all of us. It’s a time to grow closer to God through our actions, through our prayers and through using the time to learn more about Jesus.
Did you know that the ashes we share are from the burning of the Palm Sunday palms the year prior?
