Burning of the Palms

On Wednesday, we participated in the Ash Wednesday Liturgy.  Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, the time we prepare for Jesus' death and resurrection.  Prior to Ash Wednesday, we burnt the palms we had from Palm Sunday last year.  It was the ashes from these burnt palms that the sign of the cross was made on our forehead.
