Holy Days / Special Schedules

Lent, Holy Week & Easter 2021

Ash Wednesday – February 17, 2020, 6:15AM, 12:10PM, 5:30PM Ashes will be dispensed at end of all Masses
- The Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments has directed that the following adaptations be made to celebrations of Ash Wednesday this year:
  The Priest will say the prayer for blessing the ashes. He will address all those present only once as it appears in the Roman Missal, applying it to all in general :”Repent, and believe in the Gospel”, or “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return”. The Priest and Ministers will cleanse their hands, puts on their face mask and distribute ashes to those who come to him. Parishioners will bow their heads, allowing the Priest/Minister merely pinch the ashes between the thumb and forefingers then sprinkles ashes on the crown of the head, without saying anything.
  These changes
  · Reduces the necessity of physical contact between those imposing and receiving ashes
  · And eliminates the needs of those imposing ashes to speak while in close proximity to those receiving ashes
