The Parish of Christ Church is preparing for its Feb. 14 Ash Wednesday service and its Ash & Dash tradition will continue this year. From 8 to 9:30 a.m. and from 3 to 5:30 p.m. drivers can pull into the church parking lot and receive ashes while remaining in their car. The church is located at the intersection of Church Road and Route 59.
“Christ Church is delighted to make this holy ritual available to the Easton and surrounding communities,” said Senior Warden Vicki MarkAnthony. “A sacred symbol of our shared humanity, need, and the tender care of our Creator, the sprinkling of ashes also marks the beginning of the season of Lent shared by Christians.”
Christ Church will also offer an Ash Wednesday service at 6 p.m. The brief service will include a reading of Holy Scriptures, a Lenten reflection, prayers, and the imposition of ashes.
