Christmastide at Ascension
Our worship services for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, the First Sunday after Christmas and the Second Sunday after Christmas have all become online-only, due to the recent surge of COVID infections in New York City. But do please join us at ascensionnyc.org/webcasts as we welcome the Christ child into our hearts and celebrate the birth of Emmanuel, "God with Us."
