Ash Wednesday

We had a very ash-filled Ash Wednesday...the ladies set up a beautiful candle display for our evening Taize service on the altar. And then left it. We came in the sanctuary to start the service and there were a few extra flames dancing around...

No one was hurt. Nothing was seriously damaged. Mostly the altar shroud was a bit scorched. I think most of the damage came from the fire extinguisher...

See? Christians shouldn't be allowed to play with fire. It just gets out of hand too easily. Before you know it, there's burning witches & free-thinkers everywhere! Just sing a bit, & let it go at that.
