A parishioner receives ashes from Bishop Larry Kulick at Blessed Sacrament Cathedral in Greensburg on Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2025.
Ash Wednesday is a holy day of prayer, fasting and almsgiving that marks the start of the six weeks of penitence before Easter, known as Lent.
For many Christians, its start is noted by receiving cross-shaped ashes on their forehead.
That was the case Wednesday at Blessed Sacrament Cathedral in Greensburg.
