Passion Sunday Cantata

Please join us for a performance of MJ Trotta's "Seven Last Words" on Passion Sunday, March 29, 4:30 p.m. at Ascension. The combined choirs of Ascension and St. James the Less Episcopal Church, Northfield, will perform this dramatic and moving cantata as the opening to Holy Week. The cantata is free and open to the public.

Holy Week

We gather on Maundy Thursday at 7 p.m. for a simple service of confession, word and communion. On this holy night, we remember the sacrifice of Jesus' life for the world. 

Good Friday

Ascension is invited to worship with one of our Willow Road neighbors:

St. James the Less Episcopal Church (st.jamestheless.org)

Northfield Community Church (https://www.northfielducc.org)

There will be no worship at Ascension that evening.
