The season of Lent begins Wednesday, February 26th. Traditionally, AshWednesday is the beginning of the Lenten journey, as sojourners are invited to receive ashes and reflect on the truth that “we were made from dust, and to dust we will return.” If you’d like to observe this ritual, join Pastor Leah for an hour of worship, prayer, and liturgy as we receive ashes and invite God to lead each of us on our Lenten journey. Service will be held at the Chapter 510 building, 2301 Telegraph Avenue, Oakland.
