The Rev. Posey Krakowsky, our new Priest Associate, will begin her ministry at Ascension this week. She will be the regular presider and preacher at our Wednesday evening 6 pm service starting September 13, and she will preach this Sunday, September 17 at both the 9 and 11 am services. She will also lead a forum following the 11 am service this Sunday introducing herself to us and sharing something of her spiritual journey. Please join us to welcome her and hear her message! Mother Posey will be at Ascension for a weekday service each week, and will either preach or celebrate at least once a month at Sunday services. She will also lead classes and other programs from time to time as she develops a special teaching ministry in spirituality and the arts. We are delighted to have her among us!

This week, the rector reflects on the story of the ten lepers, only one of whom returns to thank Jesus after being healed. She explores the connection between faith, gratitude, and true healing — not just physical restoration but the deep awareness of belonging and abundance. Quoting Robin Wall Kimmerer, she reminds us that gratitude binds us in relationship with God, one another, and all creation. In a world marked by fear and division, practicing gratitude becomes both healing and holy work. How will you say “thank you” today?
