Father John Girotti joins Chuck Neff to discuss why Ash Wednesday Mass is one of the most popular Masses to attend each year.

Caller Question – She was unable to attend Mass today, so she burned palms she had from last year for ashes. Is that okay?

Caller Question – Why are they sprinkling ashes on the head instead of putting them on the forehead?
