Ash Wednesday

Tonight we headed to church for the Ash Wednesday service. Andy and L were among the bell ringers who opened the service. Here's L giving her "gansta" bell ringer pose. Fierce, eh?

Afterward, we headed to the basement kitchen to make a meals for the local homeless shelter. B has to do two "missions" this year as part of his confirmation class. One has to be with a parent and the other has to be with his sponsor. At least we got the parent one out of the way. We seasoned chicken thighs and legs, made green beans, garlic mashed potatoes and a lettuce salad. Tomorrow's group will take the food to the church that serves as the overnight shelter and cook it.
