Join the Ascension Public Relations Committee
As Ascension enters its 140th year, there's no better time to tell our story. We're forming this committee to articulate who we are to our internal family but to also assemble a standard media packet, print and digital, to be distributed to a wider audience. The goal is to tell our story in a consistent manner and to promote the goings on at Church of the Ascension. If you're interested, please contact Jacqueline Gleason at jacquelinegleason@gmail.com.
Tuesday Club
The Tuesday Club will be meeting this Tuesday at 11:00am.
Offering Envelopes
Offering envelopes are now available in the back pew of the church. If you requested envelopes and do not see your name, please let Fr. Kevin know.
