A Message from the Rector, Thursday, April 9, 2020.
This year we celebrate Maundy Thursday at 7pm with readings and reflection, and a simple meal shared online. This is a new experience at Ascension, though it is an old tradition for Maundy Thursday. Please prepare some simple food in your own home, and set it out next to your computer. It is traditional to have bread and wine, as well as some other Lenten fare, and to bless the food as part of the service. This is not a Eucharist, but it does invite our reflection on the sharing of food in community, and the presence of Christ at all our tables. If you have questions, please contact the clergy.
