ANNOUNCEMENT

Pastoral Recommendations for Ash Wednesday
Instructions for Imposition of Ashes
In view of the continuing risks posed by the COVID-19 (Wuhan Coronavirus) outbreak and to mitigate the human-to-human transmission, especially through tactile contact, the arch/bishops of the Catholic Bishops Conference of Malaysia have agreed that the following procedures for the Imposition of Ashes are to be observed in all parishes and mass centres under our jurisdiction:
a. Priests and other extraordinary ministers tasked with the imposition of ashes should  
thoroughly wash and disinfect their hands prior to and immediately after the imposition
of Ashes;
b. Following the long established custom in Rome, ashes will be imposed by the minister
sprinkling dry ash on the crown of a person’s head (whilst saying one of the formulas
prescribed in the missal). The previous local custom of drawing a cross on the   
forehead of a person, with moistened ash, is suspended.
c. No holy water should be added to the ash before the sprinkling.
For more details kindly refer to the parish notice board.
