By Father Perry D. Leiker, pastor
"This is not just receiving ashes. This is a command to go forth and do something," Father Perry tells us in the first episode of our Lenten podcast, on Ash Wednesday. "YOU, turn away from sin and believe in the Gospel. Because if that's what today is, and this Lenten season, this is a period of intense and unbelievable growth. This is just not a day of fasting or praying; it's a day in which we are accepting on our foreheads for the world to see."
