Ash Wednesday is fast approaching. Here at St. Alban’s there will be no Bible study that morning, as there will be Confessions starting at 10:30 a.m. In addition, there will be Confessions heard from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. Clergy will be here the previous day, Shrove Tuesday for those wishing to make their Confession before Lent actually begins.
There will be two Masses with Imposition of Ashes-Noon and 6:30 p.m. Matins will take place as usual at 8:00 a.m.
If you are looking for a particular discipline to take on this Lent, I suggest coming to Matins daily on weekdays. There are some differences during the penitential season, notably the use of the Lenten Prose in the sung service. You can hear a version of it much like we chant on the YouTube here: Lenten Prose
