There will be an Ash Wednesday Service at Central UMC on Wednesday, February 22, 2023,  beginning at 12:00 noon.  Ash Wednesday marks the first day of Lent, and during the service the clergy will mark crosses on the foreheads of worshippers using the ashes from burnt palms.  The mark is a sign of repentance.  Reverend Amy Hutchison will provide the message based on Genesis 2:7 – “Dust that Clings.”   The book used as a basis for the Lenten worship services is by Jill J. Duffield entitled “Lent in Plain Sight.”  Join us as we begin 40 days of Lent.

Following the service there will be a soup and sandwich lunch.
