Once again we have several congregations in the Diocese participating in Ashes to Go.
Ashes to Go started in Chicago in 2010, where clergy took to the streets on Ash Wednesday to give people a moment of prayer, reflection and renewal. Since then it has expanded across the US and to Canada, the UK and South Africa.
