Ash Wednesday – March 2nd

Ashes on our foreheads remind us of God’s words to Adam and Eve as they are driven out of the garden: “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” In Lent, we return to God with all of our hearts.

Ashes available at Augustana from 8am to 11am

Spend as much time as you would like in quiet contemplation in the nave
