Because of the pandemic and restrictions, ashes will not be presented at St. Stephens in the usual manner. There will be a 7:00 and 9:00 Mass and a noon Scripture service on that day only. Ashes contained in a small packet will be blessed and the words familiar to us when ashes are imposed will be said to the general group. They will be given out at the end of Mass to be imposed at home.

The church will be open from 6:30am - 6:30pm on the 17th. 

If you come to church for private prayer throughout the day, blessed ash packets will be available to pick up in the atrium as available.
