Ascension’s Recovery Eucharist seeks to intentionally create a safe worship environment for helping those who have been either afflicted or affected by addiction to create a place for spiritual growth and development for those in search of healing and recovery.
It is in the midst of our brokenness that we encounter God’s unconditional love which is manifested in God’s grace. We invite you to come and experience Recovery Eucharist at Ascension!

This week, the rector reflects on the road to Emmaus, where two grief-stricken disciples walk with a stranger who listens to their trauma, reframes their despair, and reminds them that God works even in brokenness. Only when he breaks bread with them do their eyes open and they recognize the risen Christ. Mother Liz asks when we have encountered the Risen One—in deep listening, unexpected hope amid trauma, familiar liturgy, or the faces gathered around the table—inviting us to notice where Easter life continues spreading among and through us.
