Noon & 7 pm
There are three opportunities to prepare for Lent this Ash Wednesday. First join us online for a pre-recorded Ash Wednesday service. Make meaning out of this Lent from wherever you are. Video will be available anytime after 12 pm on Wednesday afternoon. Visit: https://www.firstchurchberkeley.org/watch/
Second is Ashes to Go—Rev. Hannah and Rev. Kelly will be on the Cal campus in Sproul Plaza near Bancroft giving ashes and blessings from 12-1 pm. Remember you are dust, made of earth—no more, no less, and as infinitely worthy as the earth itself.
Third is the in-person service at 7 pm on the Chancel, the raised part at the front of the sanctuary. We’ll sing together, remember our mortality and our flaws, and hope together for a world made new.
