Originated 600 years after the death of Christ, so it is a church custom. Christian customs had to be practiced by Jesus Christ, himself, as Christian followers of Christ we are called to imitate Him alone

Ash Wed has a non Christian origin and was accepted into the beliefs of the Catholic Church at the council of Nicaea in 325 AD. During this time the goal of Constantine was to unite pagans and Christians within the Roman Kingdom. The council also settled on a 40 day fast period.

In 601 Pope Gregory moved the beginning of Lent from the 4th Sunday of the year to Ash Wed., 46 days before Easter. Pope Gregory also instituted the tradition of marking parishioners foreheads with ashes in the shape of the cross.
