Bethesda United Methodist Church in Sykesville, Md., has come up with an unconventional way to meet the spiritual needs of a busy congregation, and will be offering a drive-through Ash Wednesday service this year, reports WBal.

"People will stop by, we'll have a small prayer, we'll consecrate them with the ashes and they can go on and begin lent."
