Each year Ascension parishioners participate in the The Children’s Aid Toy Drive at the New York Marriott Marquis. Toys are being collected from Wednesday, 12/ 4, through Wednesday 12/18. Children’s Aid will distribute the toys to each of the children on an individual basis. The Church of the Ascension will also be making toy donations to this worthy cause. A basket will be set up in The Parish Hall for the toy collection. If you would like to make a donation of a new, unwrapped toy, please drop it off in the basket, by Sunday, December 15. If you have any questions, please contact Tom Rice at Rockcent@aol.com or at Thomas.Rice@marriott.com.

This week, the rector reflects on Paul’s affirmation that nothing—death, hardship, corruption, violence, or our own failings—can separate us from God’s love in Christ. She explores how the Spirit sustains us in our weakness, interceding with sighs too deep for words. She invites us to consider how we might live differently if we truly believed this conviction shapes not only our ultimate fate but our daily struggles.
