Ascension members and friends are going to see the Staten Island Yankees play on Friday, July 29. We’re hoping to get a group rate (which includes a hot dog), so please let Steve Hubbard (shubbard[at]nyu.edu) know if you can join us. It will be lots of fun, and a great opportunity to bring friends of all ages.
Listen to the sermon preached by the Rev. Ed Chinery on the Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost, October 4, 2026.
For St. Francis Day, Mother Liz shares Galway Kinnell’s poem about St. Francis blessing a sow, reminding us of the sacred work of “reteaching a thing its loveliness.” Through tenderness and touch, we honor the intricate beauty in all creatures. May we see and bless the loveliness in all God’s creation, including ourselves.
