THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON OF LENT: ASH WEDNESDAY

Prayer: Support us, Lord, as with this Lenten fast we begin our Christian warfare, so that in doing battle against the spirit of evil we may be armed with the weapon of self-denial. We make our prayer through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Note: This prayer is taken from THE DIVINE OFFICE II – LENT AND EASTERTIDE, page 9.
