“Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!” 🎶🙏

During the 11:00 AM Mass on August 2, our community joined together in singing “Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!” as the Post-Communion Hymn.

Written by William C. Dix and sung to the tune Hyfrydol, the hymn invites us to praise Christ, our eternal King, and to carry the joy of the Eucharist with us beyond the celebration of Mass.

The music of the liturgy was led by our cantors, John Bowles, Kite Shepherd, and Michael Vallikappil, with Preston Smith, Ascension’s Director of Music.

We are grateful for the voices of our whole community joining together in song. 🎶🙏

“¡Aleluya! ¡Cantemos a Jesús!” 🎶

Durante la Misa de las 11:00 AM del 2 de agosto, nuestra comunidad se unió para cantar “Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!” como himno después de la Comunión.

Escrito por William C. Dix y cantado con la melodía Hyfrydol, el himno nos invita a alabar a Cristo, nuestro Rey eterno, y a llevar con nosotros la alegría de la Eucaristía más allá de la celebración de la Misa.

La música de la liturgia estuvo dirigida por nuestros cantores, John Bowles, Kite Shepherd y Michael Vallikappil, junto con Preston Smith, Director de Música de Ascension.

Agradecemos las voces de toda nuestra comunidad unidas en el canto. 🎶

“Listen to him.”

Today, we celebrate the Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord. On the mountain, the disciples were given a glimpse of Christ’s glory before the difficult journey that awaited them.

As Fr. Daniel Kearney reflects in this week’s Pastor’s Column, the Transfiguration reminds us that darkness does not have the final word. God continues to work quietly in the ordinary moments of our lives through prayer, the Eucharist, forgiveness, acts of kindness, and the love we share with one another.

Today at the Church of the Ascension:

12:00 noon: English Mass
7:00 p.m.: Misa en Español
7:30–9:00 p.m.: Spanish Emaus men’s and women’s groups
8:00 p.m.: Spanish Cursillistas group

“Escúchenlo.”

Hoy celebramos la Fiesta de la Transfiguración del Señor. En la montaña, los discípulos pudieron contemplar la gloria de Cristo antes de emprender el difícil camino que les esperaba.

Como reflexiona el P. Daniel Kearney en la Columna del Pastor de esta semana, la Transfiguración nos recuerda que la oscuridad no tiene la última palabra. Dios continúa obrando silenciosamente en los momentos ordinarios de nuestra vida por medio de la oración, la Eucaristía, el perdón, los actos de bondad y el amor que compartimos.

Hoy en la Iglesia de la Ascensión:

12:00 del mediodía: Misa en inglés
7:00 p.m.: Misa en español
7:30–9:00 p.m.: Grupos Emaús de hombres y mujeres
8:00 p.m.: Grupo de Cursillistas

“God does not begin by saying, ‘Prove yourself or earn your place or get your life together first.’ He simply says, ‘Come.’”

In his homily at the 11:00 AM Mass on August 2, Fr. Daniel Kearney reflected on the wideness of God’s invitation. It is offered to everyone who thirsts for peace, forgiveness, hope, friendship, purpose, justice, or simply to be seen.

May we remember this week that God does not ask us to put our lives in order before coming to him. He invites us to come and receive life.

💙🙏

“Dios no comienza diciendo: ‘Demuéstrate digno, gánate un lugar o primero pon tu vida en orden.’ Simplemente dice: ‘Ven.’”

En su homilía durante la Misa de las 11:00 AM del 2 de agosto, el P. Daniel Kearney reflexionó sobre la amplitud de la invitación de Dios. Esta invitación es para todos los que tienen sed de paz, perdón, esperanza, amistad, propósito, justicia o, sencillamente, de ser vistos.

Que recordemos esta semana que Dios no nos pide que primero pongamos nuestra vida en orden antes de acercarnos a Él. Nos invita a venir y recibir la vida.

On the Feast of St. John Vianney, patron saint of parish priests, we give thanks for the priests who have served and continue to serve the Church of the Ascension.

“Even a small commitment of your time can make a meaningful difference.”

Today, Monday, August 3, we begin an additional monthly Food Pantry distribution at the Church of the Ascension. As food insecurity continues to affect many in our community, this ministry will now also serve our neighbors on the first Monday of every month.

During Sunday’s announcements, Fr. Kearney invited young adults ages 18–35 to consider joining this ministry of service. If you are available today, we would be grateful to have you with us.

📍 Please meet at the Church of the Ascension around 5:00 PM.

Together, we can share Christ’s love in a simple and tangible way. 💙
