Join us at All Saints Church
Shrove Tuesday, February 13, and Ash Wednesday, February 14.
What Keeps Me from Seeing the Truth that I Am Beloved of God? Which Old Patterns, Beliefs or Experiences Would I Like to Release? What in My Life Is in Need of Transformation? Help Us Create Our Ashes For Ash Wednesday
Bring your offering on Shrove Tuesday, from 4:00–6:00 p.m. We will create ashes out of things in our lives we want to release or transform. We will take everyone’s offerings, along with the Palm branches from last year’s Palm Sunday services, and burn them in a transforming fire. Our ashes will be the remains of all we wish to release or transform, and we will wear them together. We invite you to write a word or phrase that represents something that prevents you from living as a fully beloved child of God. Then bring it to the church between 4:00 – 6:00 p.m., or email your word or phrase to information@allsaints-pas.org (Put “For Ash Wed. fire” in subject line).
Then, from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. in Sweetland Hall — Shrove Tuesday Pancakes!
It’s Back! Join us as we merge the Anglican tradition of Shrove Tuesday Pancakes with the festive energy of the best Mardi Gras party in town! Bring your Mardi Gras spirit to this traditional last “fat” meal before Ash Wednesday! Bring your children and grandchildren! We will offer arts and crafts for the young and young at heart. Pre-Event Tickets are on sale here.
