Ascension Outreach and Resistance Cinema Present: Requiem for the American Dream on Tuesday evening, November 1st at 6:30 p.m. The New York Times described the film as “a timely 75-minute teach-in by Noam Chomsky, the M.I.T. linguistics professor who has been a leading leftist political analyst, critic and writer for six decades…focuses here on an election-season theme: financial inequality in America and what he calls its corrosive effect on democracy.” The film screening will be shown in the Parish Hall, entrance at 12 West 11th Street, and is free of charge.

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.
