Join Alvernia to Celebrate the Season of Lent
All are Welcome to Celebrate and Prepare for the Season of Lent
Please note that while these are Catholic practices, you do not have to be Catholic to partake in any of these events, including receiving ashes. While Ash Wednesday is not considered a Holy Day of Obligation, a Wednesday Mass at Noon is being held on campus.
