Happy Easter Celebration to our Ascension Congregation,

For those who plan to attend the Easter Vigil tomorrow morning at 7am; it will be held inside the church instead of up at the outdoor chapel, due to the weather conditions predicted. Everything will continue as planned, with an Easter brunch following.

The 10AM Service will also be celebrated, with an Easter brunch following.

If you ordered an Easter Plant(s) - you may take it home with you after the service. They are beautiful.

What a great Saturday! We joined other area churches and participated in the Rise Against Hunger workshop. It made for a wonderful gathering; seeing old friends and making new ones. We all worked hard as the music played.
By the end of the event, we had packed 38,000 meals!
I hope we get to do this again and thanks to everyone who helped make this a wonderful day. If you weren't able to make it, we missed you!

Thanks to all of the amazing and generous people at Ascension for their donations for Hurricane Helene relief. All of this is going to St. James in Hendersonville to be distributed to folks who have lost so much.

We had a great celebration today with our Bishop, The Right Reverend Daniel Richards. We received these four wonderful folks from the Roman Catholic tradition. From left to right they are: John and Liz Magro, Ron Rocci, and Greg Binder. Thanks, too, to The Reverend Mary Jeffers, our Deacon for the Eucharist—she’s great.
