Birth Kits for South Sudan
The situation in South Sudan and neighboring countries is causing suffering for millions and forcing families to flee their homes. Most South Sudanese refugees are women and children. Among the many needs of this group is the need for birth kits. The Diocese of Olympia has committed to purchasing and delivering 100 birth kits to the refugee camp near the capital city of Juba. One birth costs $100. The Rev. Canon Carla Robinson will be visiting Ascension on Sunday, May 24 and will share her experience of traveling to Sudan to initiate a new diocesan mission. You are invited to join us, and support this work!

This week is the Second Sunday of the month, so that means we are collecting for Ballard Food Bank! Anyone is able to donate non-perishable food items to the Church of the Ascension, and we will deliver those donations to the food bank. We load up the cars at 11:30am. Help us make a difference for those facing food insecurity.
