2023 Ash Wednesday Schedules for Some Parishes

By Oskar H. Solich (Rhingdrache) (Own work) CC-BY-SA-3.0

These are some of the masses for Ash Wednesday this 2023 so that you can have ash placed.

Since the Covid alert level has relaxed but wearing a mask and social distancing is still prescribed.  I just hope that you take care when we go outside.

Again, it's a day of fasting for those 18 years old to 60.  People 14 to 17 years old or beyond 60 are obliged to do abstinence from meat.  Check with your doctor if fasting doesn't suit well with your body and you can exchange this discipline by performing real acts of charity towards those who really need it.

Stay safe!
