Burning Palms
St. Columcille PSR students witnessed the Burning of the Palms which occurred Sunday morning, February 23rd, at Immaculate Conception Church. Fr John Titus burned last years palms which were blessed on Palm Sunday. The ashes from these palms will be used on Ash Wednesday, February 26th, a day of universal fast and abstinence in the Catholic Church. It is the beginning of the forty days of Lent which leads us to the fifty days of the Easter Season.
