- **Event Name**: Catholic and Anglican Ecumenical Ash Wednesday Service
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 18 Feb, 2026 at 09:00 am
- **Event Description**: Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, a season of reflection, repentance, and renewal for Christians around the world. Each year in Wainuiomata, Holy Trinity Anglican Church and St Patrick’s Catholic Church come together for an ecumenical Ash Wednesday service, with the hosting and preaching roles shared between the two churches on a rotating basis.
During the service, worshippers receive the sign of the cross in ash on their foreheads — a powerful reminder of our mortality (“remember that you are dust”) and our call to turn back to God with honest hearts. The service blends prayer, scripture, and quiet reflection as we begin the Lenten journey together in unity and hope.
