1st Sunday after Christmas
Holy Eucharist with Baptism 9 am
Holy Eucharist with Lessons and Carols 11 am
Meditation & Sacrament 6 pm
Join us in the liturgies of this holy time of year as fully as you are able, walking with Jesus and our own Ascension community from the triumphal entry into Jerusalem to the footwashing and meal in the upper room on Maundy Thursday; from the horror of the crucifixion on Good Friday to the strange wonder of the empty tomb on the eve of Easter Sunday. In moving through this drama liturgically we often find that our understanding and faith are deepened and strengthened,
and we are changed.
In-person worship on Sundays takes place at 9 am, 11 am, and 6 pm.
But if you can’t join us in person, you can watch our 11 am Sunday Eucharist service by using the following link:

Be transported by the voices of our classically trained choir, the notes from our world-renowned organ, and the joys of congregational singing.
Through volunteer work, advocacy, fundraising and community engagement, we find that faith with good works is a spiritually healthy combination.
Every Sunday, our worship is illuminated by some of the greatest examples of 19th and 20th century American religious art. Come see for yourself.
Our church building is one of the earliest examples of Gothic Revival — designed by the man who probably did more than any other to create that revival.
Founded in 1827 on Canal Street, by 1841 Ascension had arrived at its present home in Greenwich Village as the first church on New York’s famous Fifth Avenue.
We live out our faith in many different ways — with children, the hungry, the oppressed, and with each other.
