Ash Wednesday Masses
Christ The King Church, Thornbury
Whilst it is not a Holy Day of Obligation, all Catholics are encouraged to go to Mass on this day and to receive ashes as a sign of our repentance and turning back to God.
The day begins the season of Lent: a period of 40 days (Sundays excluded) when we prepare for Eastertide. Ash Wednesday reminds us that we are called to turn away from sin, to repent and to believe the Good News of our salvation through Jesus Christ. The day is also a day of Fasting and Abstinence.
There will Masses at 10.00am and 7.00pm at Christ the King
Church. Please make every effort to attend one of these.
