Rev. Alice Bradley of Northglenn's Church of the Beloved applies ashes and a blessing to the forehead of Rikka Derue on Feb. 5 in Northglenn's E.B.Rains Jr. Memorial Park for Ash Wednesday while Leo watches. Ash Wednesday is the beginning of Lent for Christians. This is the tenth year the Church of the Beloved has administered Lenten ashes in Northglenn parks or bus stations. "We go where the people are, rather than make them come to us," Bradley said. Credit: Scott Taylor
