For Christians, Ash Wednesday signifies the beginning of the season of Lent which extends over 40 days and culminates with Easter. Services are held in churches of most Christian denominations and a key ritual is the smearing of ash on a personâs forehead, in the shape of a cross.
Whatâs the reason for ashes on Ash Wednesday? As you know, Jesus retreated into the wilderness and fasted for forty days to prepare for his ministry. It was for Him a time of contemplation, reflection, and preparation. By observing Lent, most Christians join Jesus on His retreat.
