On Mar. 5th, the Trinity community celebrates Ash Wednesday beginning the 40 days of Lent leading up to Easter. On this special day of reflection, Catholics wear a marking of the cross in ash created from palms used in the previous year’s Palm Sunday celebration on their foreheads. The ashes symbolize our mortality – “Remember you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” They also serve as a symbol of penance during Lent made sacramental by the blessing of the Church.
