🌈 Church of the Ascension at Cleveland Pride 🌈

On Saturday, members of Church of the Ascension joined thousands from across Northeast Ohio for the Cleveland Pride Parade and Festival.

It was a day filled with joy, community, conversation, and celebration. We were honored to walk alongside our neighbors, sharing a message of welcome, inclusion, and God's love for all people.

Thank you to everyone who marched, volunteered, stopped to say hello, or shared a smile along the route. We are grateful for the opportunity to be present and to celebrate the beautiful diversity of our community.

Whoever you are, and wherever you are on your journey of faith, you are welcome here.

💜💙💚💛🧡❤️

Kids Leadership Sunday at Ascension

This past Sunday, our young people helped lead worship in meaningful ways throughout the service. From carrying the offering plates and serving in the procession to reading and assisting during worship, they stepped forward with confidence, faith, and servant hearts.

We are grateful for these children and youth who remind us that leadership in the Church begins at every age. Thank you to all who participated and helped make this special Sunday a blessing for our parish family.

"Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example..." – 1 Timothy 4:12

Pentecost Sunday was filled with joy and blessings at Church of the Ascension! ✝️🕊️

We were delighted to celebrate the baptism of Lauren Evelyn Beatty and the reaffirmation of baptismal vows by Parker Edman. Surrounded by family, friends, and our parish family, it was a beautiful day of faith, renewal, and thanksgiving.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone whose hospitality, service, and fellowship helped make this Pentecost celebration so special. Please join us in congratulating Lauren, Parker, and their families, and keep them in your prayers as they continue their journeys of faith.

The beauty of worship was lifted even higher this past Sunday by a wonderful quartet who shared their gifts with us. Their music filled the sanctuary with grace, drawing hearts and minds into a deeper place of reflection and praise.

There’s something special about live music in sacred space — each note feels like it lingers just a little longer, echoing both in the room and within us. We are so grateful for the time, talent, and dedication these musicians offered to our parish.

Thank you for helping make our worship so meaningful. 🎻✨

✝️ Christ Is Risen… He Is Risen Indeed! Alleluia! ✨

We were blessed to receive a few more photos from our Easter service 💒, capturing the beauty of the liturgy and the joy shared together as a parish family.

There is something truly powerful about gathering in worship and experiencing the presence of God 🕊️ in such a meaningful way. Moments like these remind us why this holy day carries such deep significance.

Thank you again to everyone who joined us at Church of the Ascension 🙏

On this holy day of resurrection, we rejoice in worship, fellowship, and new life in Christ.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the newest baptized member of our parish, Aaron, who was baptized during the Easter Vigil by Bishop Jolly at Trinity Cathedral.

During this meeting, we will have the first of two conversations about discernment in our congregation as we make our next steps toward calling a new priest. These meetings will be about who we are as a community, where we are in our lifecycle, and how all that fits into our process for the coming months.

Please do make plans to attend and participate if you are able.

If not, this meeting will be held in the sanctuary so that online access will be possible.
