Please join us for the next Sunday forum in our series featuring members of our parish who make art in a variety of media. The forum takes place after the 11am service. Our hope is to explore how making art expresses and forms our spirituality, and perhaps along the way to ponder what it means to be made in the image of an infinitely creative God. This forum is led by our own Bora Yoon, a choir member, sound artist, vocalist and composer, and also offers a tantalizing taste of what she will be doing at her concert with theraminist Armen Ra here at Ascension on Friday, May 5. Don’t miss it! Tickets for the May 5th concert are available at http://soundsoftheascension.bpt.me/
Newsletter
Parish News: May 24
In this week’s newsletter, the rector notes Pentecost’s reversal of Babel—not by restoring a single language, but by enabling understanding across difference as each speaks and hears in their own tongue. She treasures hearing parishioners read “God’s deeds of power” in many languages during worship, and invites us to consider what it means to speak of God in our own heart language—whether shaped by mother tongue, place, trust, or profound shared experience. In a time of contempt for difference, Pentecost reveals the blessing of many tongues and the Holy Spirit’s gift of mutual understanding across culture, faith, and ethnic background.
