Season's Greetings
"Stopped into a church I passed along the way. Well, I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray...." (Lyrics: California Dreamin', The Mamas And Papas)
Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of the Christian season of Lent.
There was a continuous steam of people who stopped into St. Francis of Assissi church to receive ashes and a blessing from the Friar in the Chapel of Saint Anthony, half a block east of Penn Station. No pretend praying, though.
Greetings and blessings of the season to everyone!
