Lutheran, Episcopal churches join hands for Ash Wednesday
Lutheran, Episcopal
churches join hands for Ash Wednesday
St. Andrew's Episcopal
Church and Christ Our Shepherd Lutheran Church will have a combined Ash
Wednesday Service on Feb. 25. The 7 p.m. service will be held at St. Andrew's,
316 N. Peachtree Parkway, Peachtree City.
The combined service celebrates
the beginning of Lent.
For almost 20 years both Peachtree
City churches have begun Lent together, the season that marks the 40 days,
minus Sundays, prior to Easter when Christians traditionally practice
special acts of devotion and abstinence.
Practiced since the centuries
of the early church, Ash Wednesday is celebrated with Holy Communion and
the imposition of ashes upon the foreheads of the faithful.
