Join the festivities at the Ascension Water Table to mark the occasion of the 43rd Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots as we hand out water to marchers. If you wish to RSVP contact Steve Hubbard or sign up on the bulletin board in the Parish Hall. We may have a large crowd near the church since the march route was shortened last year to start at 36th Street and turn west on 9th Street from Fifth Avenue by the reviewing stand. We will set up around noon after the 11 am service.

Parish News: August 23
This week our associate rector, Father Ed, reflects on late summer’s quieter rhythm in the city and the subtle shifts in energy he observes while making pastoral calls. He contrasts the effects of anxiety-inducing news cycles with the neurological benefits of worship and faith community—the oxytocin and endorphins that come from fellowship. He encourages us to keep returning to church, trusting that our shared spiritual practice sustains hope.
