Ash Wednesday at the Drive-Thru

Give Father Harry Jenkins, of the Christ Episcopal Church in Slidell, Louisiana, props for innovation:

You can order your burgers at the drive-thru window. Or pick up your dry cleaning and do your banking. On Wednesday, a Slidell church will offer “Ashes to Go,” during two periods when motorists can drive by the church to receive ashes on their foreheads in observance of Ash Wednesday.

Without leaving their vehicles.

Next up: five-minute weddings and eucharists-by-mail.
