On Wednesday, November 6, our usual 6 pm Eucharist will be focused on our need for healing, justice and peace in our hearts, our nation and our world. All are welcome! Please join us at the Church of the Ascension — Fifth Avenue at Tenth Street — and invite a friend.
On the 25th anniversary of September 11, Mother Liz invites us to remember those lost, the first responders’ sacrifice, and the courage and compassion that arose amid devastation. Ascension will be open for prayer and reflection from 8 am to 5 pm, with bells tolling at 8:46. She shares a prayer from Bishop Allen Shin, calling us to confront hatred, resist violence, and make peace.
Listen to the sermon preached by the Rev. Liz Maxwell on the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost, September 6, 2026.
