Drive-thru ashes to go offered on Ash Wednesday

Two area churches offered people a unique way to celebrate Ash Wednesday.

Ginghamsburg Church was at Courthouse Square in downtown Dayton offering ashes and prayers with a drive-thru style offering.

David’s Church in Kettering also provided a similar service in it’s parking lot on David Road near Far Hills Avenue.

The centuries-old Christian tradition of Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent.
