Ash Wednesday

February 14 is Ash Wednesday. Ashes will be distributed during the 8:00 am (Cantonese) and 7:00 pm (Mandarin and Cantonese) masses. Shuttle bus service will begin at 6:15 pm. Abstinence and fasting should be observed on that day. During the Lenten season, Catholics are encouraged to lead a life of prayer, penance, abstinence and almsgiving while meditating on the passion of Jesus and begging for the atonement of sins.
