Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - For more than a year an ecumenical group of clergy had been meeting on Thursday mornings to share coffee together. Most of us had come to the community within the past two years. So the weekly meetings had no agenda other than for us to get to know one another.One January one of the members of the group suggested we try something new together for Ash Wednesday - 'Ashes to Go,' he called it. In some larger Urban areas, clergy had begun the season of Lent by taking to the streets and sharing ashes with those 'on the go.'
