Today we had our Ash Wednesday Mass. It's the only mass offered in our town so there were many parish/community members in attendance. It is always lovely for us to share our beautiful little church with the rest of our parish community.
The theme we are using at our school for Lent is 'Staying Connected'. We are using the image of a battery circuit which is connected to a light globe.
When we do good things and make good choices we are connected to God. Our connection remains strong and our lives are lit up from this connection. When we do bad things and make bad choices our connection may be temporarily disconnected. BUT by saying and doing the right things it always has the chance to be reconnected and provide us with the power and energy we need to light up our lives again.
What an inspiring way to remind children and community members of what Lent is and why we should try and be better versions of ourselves throughout this important time in the Church's year. Happy Ash Wednesday to all!
