Ash Wednesday: From Dust Unto Dust
A strange little holiday is coming up, and if you haven’t celebrated it before, should you and how would you?
Almighty God, you have created us out of the dust of the earth. Grant that these ashes may be to us a sign of our mortality and penitence, that we may remember that it is only by your gracious gift that we are given everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Savior.
