This podcast episode features the hymns and anthem recorded by Dr. Dennis Keene and the Ascension Choir, featuring the Manton Memorial Organ, for the Church of the Ascension’s worship service on the Second Sunday after Pentecost, June 6, 2021, which took place online via Zoom.
On Sunday, June 20, the first Sunday in-person worship in more than 15 months will take place at the church at 9 a.m., albeit with some safety precautions, such as continuing to wear masks and maintaining social distance. (While we celebrate the recent news that 70% of adults in New York State have been vaccinated, we recognize that the actual rate varies widely between unique geographic, demographic, economic, and racial groups, and that some people with compromised immune systems are less likely to form an effective immune response even when vaccinated.) You can reserve a pew for a 9 a.m. Sunday service here.
Online at 11 a.m. on Sunday, we’ll continue to gather via Zoom to hear the Word of God, sing hymns, and pray. Please join us!

Join us Sunday, June 13, online via Zoom as we celebrate the Third Sunday of Pentecost. The anthem will be the beautiful Eucaristica by Pablo Casals, and our preacher that day will be our own seminarian Stacey Carpenter. Stacey is sponsored for ordination to the priesthood by Ascension, and has just finished her second year at the Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas. Welcome home, Stacey!
From the rector: “I would welcome your thoughts about how we at Ascension can be part of healing and transformation in our city. What are the needs you see, from where you sit? What are your dreams for New York’s healing and thriving? What should our priorities be as a community of faith, here on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 10th Street, witnessing to God’s love for all?”
On Sunday, June 6, join us via Zoom for online worship at 11 a.m. as seek to “think those things that are right” and by God’s merciful guiding may do them.
