Deacon Bob Bonomi distributes ashes to Patty Senderling during Mass at St. Patrick Catholic Church on Ash Wednesday March 5.

As Catholics across the Diocese of Dallas attended Masses at different parishes, The Texas Catholic was on hand to ask them “Why is Ash Wednesday important to our faith?”

Below are some of the answers we received:

 

Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Duncanville

 

Bishop Dunne Catholic School at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Catholic Church

 

St. Patrick Catholic Church & St. Pius X Catholic Church
