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: November 15
In this week’s newsletter, Mother Liz shares how a historian’s request about Pete and Toshi Seeger’s 1943 wedding led to a discovery: the couple married in Ascension’s All Saints Chapel. The marriage register also revealed the officiant, Edward George Harris, a former assistant priest here who later became a distinguished Episcopal leader. As we celebrate our bicentennial, the parish is collecting stories of its saints and its place in New York and Episcopal history, sharing these findings in the weekly newsletter.
