CINCINNATI (AP) — A U.S. church is offering a drive-thru Ash Wednesday blessing for parishioners who might be pressed for time.

The Rev. Patricia Anderson Cook of Mt. Healthy United Methodist Church in Ohio plans to provide the service for people of all faiths and services.

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Christian season of Lent, which concludes after 40 days with the celebration of Easter.

The Cincinnati Enquirer newspaper reports that the service is aimed as well at people who might be intimidated walking into a church.

The church is also offering a more traditional Ash Wednesday service indoors.
