Lent 3, March 15 – What is Ascension for? – Community conversations about our core values as a parish.

Lent 4, March 22 – Outreach – Led by Fr Ed and Mtr. Liz. How do we reach beyond our own parish community in love, service and witness?

How does the Ascension community as a whole engage in “seeking and serving Christ in all people”, and “striving for justice and peace among all”?

Lent 5, March 29 – Pastoral Care – Led by Fr. Ed and Mtr. Posey- How do we care for each other at Ascension? What are the needs of our community? Are there systems we can organize to make our care more effective, or simply to enhance our lives together?
