It is an honor to welcome you to the official website
for Church of the Ascension parish. Our parish community
has been flourishing for more than forty years. Over
the years, we have celebrated the baptisms of our newest
members, and mourned the deaths of our beloved parishioners
and family members. We have witnessed the growth of
our community, and the renovation of our worship space,
our school, our common areas, our athletic fields, and
our grounds. We arrive with high hopes for the continued
growth of our parish community.
As I continue in my pastorate, I thank God each day
for the gifts of this community. Together, we are building
the City of God in our neighborhood. We continue to
educate our young children, form our young adults, and
share the time, talent and treasure of all our parishioners:
single people, engaged couples, married couples, seniors,
families and extended families. We will offer the gifts
of healing and compassion to those who are ill and lonely.
We will hear and respond to the cry of the poor in our
community, our nation and our world.
I thank the volunteers and parish staff who designed
the website and keep the information updated and current.
For those considering visiting or joining our parish,
welcome to our community. If you need additional information,
please call or email us.
My prayer is that we see Christ more clearly in each
other and proclaim to the world that "We will rise
together with Christ!"
Yours in Christ,
