I renew my invitation for everyone to take part on 2 March, Ash Wednesday, in a Day of Prayer and Fasting for Peace in #Ukraine, in order to be near to the suffering Ukrainian people, to be aware that we are all brothers and sisters, and to implore God for an end to the war. https://t.co/ecNo53Ofya

Today we celebrate Ash Wednesday, an annual Christian holy day where a priest places a small amount of ashes on the head of the penitent to symbolise their intention to repent and become more Christlike in their thoughts and actions. #AshWednesday #LuxVitaCaritas https://t.co/9otoZXDDED

@Kemopedy It would've been great but judging from the church where the service was held, I am guessing he (or his family) is Catholic or Anglican. And if he is then it would've been impossible as today is Ash Wednesday.

Today is Ash Wednesday. Just saying because I missed Shrove Tuesday, aka Pancake Day.

Today I went to my grandmothers Whats app to send her Gia’s 4 month pictures, like I do every month & then I realized I can’t send it to her anymore 💔 I also never got my customary Ash Wednesday “did you go to church” call 🥺 Grief sucks.
