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.
