Ash Wednesday Service

  • Second Baptist Church 300 E. Kansas Street Liberty United States (map)

Our annual Ash Wednesday Service is Wednesday, February 14, at 6:30 p.m. All are invited to come and mark the beginning of the season of Lent during this special service.

The worship service will start at 6:30 in the sanctuary and will be brief (about 30 to 45 minutes). During the service, we typically sing a hymn, read a liturgy together, and listen to a brief meditation. We’ll also have a short time for silent meditation on several scripture passages. The service is designed to be a meaningful way to mark the beginning of this season and be more intentional in how we walk into it. At the end of the service, you will have the opportunity to participate in the imposition of ashes.

Children are welcome at the Ash Wednesday Service. They may not understand or be engaged in every element of this brief service, but experiencing it will add to their growing awareness of Jesus, themselves, and the annual rhythm of our faith. An activity will be offered for them to work on during the service. Childcare will be provided for children PreK and younger.
