Philippines Ash Wednesday
A Filipino lay minister distributes communion to a parishioner whose forehead is marked with ash and who is carrying his child during the celebration of Ash Wednesday at the Manila Cathedral inside the historic district of Intramuros in Manila, Philippines, on March 5, 2025. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the forty-day Lenten season for Catholics worldwide, where ashes are placed on a person's forehead as a mark of mortality and repentance.
