Lent and Easter

Here are the dates for Lent and Easter services and events which are also in our calendar and will be listed on the home page closer to the time:

Ash Wednesday (22nd Feb)

To mark the beginning of Lent the Wednesday evening Communion service at 7pm All Saints will include the traditional imposition of ashes (marking the forehead with a cross), reminding us to repent and “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return”.
