Ashes to Go is a national movement that aims to allow as many people as possible to participate in the start of Lent.
Canon Paul Rattigan, Liverpool Cathedral’s Canon for Discipleship said:“Ashes to Go provides the opportunity for people to take part in the Lent tradition even if they can’t get to a service. You can call in to the cathedral in your lunch hour or whenever you can during the day.”
We can only assume that they can receive ashes only as they leave the confessional!?
