Wednesday 22nd February - Ash Wednesday liturgy at Faslane -South Gate of Faslane at 2:45pm
Join us for our annual Ash Wednesday Service of repentance and resistance at the home of the UK's weapons of mass destruction.
We start at the car park next to the South Gate where we will receive ashes and then process with the Nagasaki cross to the South Gate accompanied by readings, prayers and hymns. All are welcome.
Transport: If you would like a lift from Rose St in Glasgow please email glw@catholicworker.org.uk. We will be leaving at 1:30pm.
To keep Lent is to confront the principalities and powers first of all in prayer. With Jesus we face the dark side of ourselves - this is so susceptible to capture and control by the powers. If it happens that we keep vigil publicly at the gates of economic, military, political or religious authority, we do so as an act of repentance, acknowledging the solidarity of sin.
