Ash Wednesday (Reflective Service)

  • St Thomas’ Church 200 Riddiford Street Wellington, Wellington, 6021 New Zealand (map)

Come join us for a reflective Ash Wednesday service as we begin the journey of lent; a season in the Christian calendar dedicated to reflection, repentance, and preparation for Easter. It reminds us of our frailty—“from dust you came, and to dust you shall return”—and invites us to turn our hearts back to God, seeking renewal and grace. Through prayer, confession, and the sign of ashes, Christians enter this season with humility, honesty, and a renewed desire to follow Christ more closely.
