Wednesday, February 8, Ash Wednes- day, marks the beginning of the Lenten season. Lent is a time of prayer and penance as we prepare for that most glorious and joyful of events in the Chris- tian calendar, Easter. The six weeks of Lent give us an opportunity to reflect on our purpose for existance and to prepare ourselves to be worthy of the great sacrifice made by our Savior on our behalf. The Ash Wednesday celebrations began with,a School Mass at 2:30 pm followed in the evening with Stations of the Cross, recitation of the Rosary and the sacrifice of the Mass. Ashes were placed in a sign of KINGSBRIDGE PARISHISCHOOb ���,aE�An� the Cross on the foreheads of the faithful present to recall to them that they are mortal beings created by the goodness and greatness of God.
