This year the event takes place in Central Park on Sunday, May 19th. As her final major event as a 23-year-old — as well as her first public service duty as a baptized Christian — Zennie Trieu will be dedicating her 24th birthday to fundraising a $5,000+ goal for the annual AIDS Walk NY. She invites her fellow parishioners to join her and create Team Ascension. Sign-in begins at 8:30am on the morning of the walk, and the event ends around 1:30pm. This will, unfortunately, conflict with the morning services, but Zennie is definitely coming to the 7:00pm! She hopes to see you at both the walk and the evening service. Please visit ny.aidswalk.net/ascension to donate and for more information, or contact Zennie directly at zt333@nyu.edu.

Parish News: September 13
On the 25th anniversary of September 11, Mother Liz invites us to remember those lost, the first responders’ sacrifice, and the courage and compassion that arose amid devastation. Ascension will be open for prayer and reflection from 8 am to 5 pm, with bells tolling at 8:46. She shares a prayer from Bishop Allen Shin, calling us to confront hatred, resist violence, and make peace.
