News from Sing For Joy — Ash Wednesday

crossAsh Wednesday marks the beginning of the Season of Lent in the liturgical year of the church. On this day, Christians of many denominations will hear the words "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me." St. Olaf College, the home of Sing For Joy, invites you to join us for worship this holy day. The College's daily chapel service at 10:10 a.m. (Central US time) marks the beginning of the day through the burning of the palm branches.

You are then invited for evening Worship and Holy Communion including the imposition of Ashes at 9 p.m. from Boe Memorial Chapel. Both services are streamed live and on-demand for later viewing.
