Explore the mystery of Christ’s Passion with readings, chant, and Jesus’ own prayer book, the Psalter. The Rev. Deacon Sam Tallman leads the Tenebrae service on Wednesday, April 4, at 6 p.m., which opens our observance of the three holy days of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and the Vigil of Easter. Tenebrae is the Latin word for “darkness” or “shadows.”

Parish News: September 7
This week, the rector invites us into the Season of Creation (Sept. 1–Oct. 5), a time shared with Christians worldwide to honor our place in the larger community of Earth. With the theme “Peace With Creation,” we will bring concerns for climate, land, water, and all creatures into our liturgies and forums. Opportunities include joining SunDay events focused on clean energy, participating in Climate Week, and even helping at an art build here at Ascension. Mother Liz reminds us that care for Creation nourishes our spirits as well as the Earth itself.
