Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, the 40-day period when the Catholic Church asks the faithful to give themselves to prayer and to the reading of the Scripture, to fasting and to giving alms, in an effort to sharpen their senses and focus mind and heart on the reign of God.

The Archdiocese is also promoting the sacrament of reconciliation, also known as penance or confession, during the Lenten season. All Catholic churches in the archdiocese will make the sacrament available on Wednesdays from 7-8:30 p.m. starting March 4.
