That's Stephen Colbert, of course - who, on television, makes no secret of his Christianity. Not every Christian gets ashes on Ash Wednesday, of course, but many find the tradition a meaningful way to be begin Lent.
After a little snowfall, we want you all to know that THE ASH WEDNESDAY SOUP SUPPER AND COMMUNION SERVICE IS STILL ON! The sidewalks are cleared, the church parking lot and nearby on-street parking places are plowed, and we'll have runners ready to meet you at your car and carry in your soup pot, if that would help you.
6:00 on Wednesday, February 17 for the supper, followed by the informal worship service at 7:00. All ages welcome (activities available for young kids). Bring a pot of soup to share, if you can; or, if you're coming from work or errands and just don't have enough simmer-on-the-stove time, then please - just come. There's always plenty of soup!
Now that we've told you the Soup Supper is still on, please check out the action item below - your quick signature on an online petition could make a big difference for local Superstorm Sandy relief efforts!
