Please join us in supporting Church of the Ascension!

Much of our parish budget supports salaries, utilities and other unglamorous infrastructure of our common life. This in turn makes our programs possible; it keeps our doors open wide, our music soaring and our care for one another steady even in — especially in — hard times. What you pledge to give today will help us plan for tomorrow. If we give what we can, we will continue to receive all of the soul liberating gifts that Church of the Ascension has to offer including our inspiring worship, programming, and community.
