Ash Wednesday inaugurates the season of Lent. During this special service we confront our mortality and confess our sins within the community of faith.
Some churches observe Ash Wednesday with distribution of ashes, reading prayers of repentance, and with other services offered from the pulpit.
In ancient days, people marked times of fasting, prayer, repentance, mourning, and remorse by placing ashes on their foreheads. During Lent, ancient Christians mourned their sins and repented of them; it was appropriate for them to show their sincerity by placing ashes on their foreheads. The custom has survived in the church.
The traditions of Ash Wednesday came up as a part of the Lenten customs during the late 5th century. Penitence and fasting are two of the key distinctives of Lent. And thus also of the Ash Wednesday, which marks the onset of a period of sober reflection, self-examination, and spiritual redirection.
Please Note: Finished pieces will always have small variations in size, color, and texture.

"We ordered the Blue, but we were shipped the Rose. Since it was close to Ash Wednesday, we used the Rose for the service. Our pastor used only the bottom half of the container to dip his finger each time. if it's supposed to be used by being shaken upside down, it should have a locking mechanism on it so it doesn't spill. Otherwise, it is a very pretty container for the ashes."
"This was a gift for a pastor friend. The piece is lovely and my friend used it for Ash Wednesday."
