Advent Kits are back!

This year, your kit will include everything you need to create your own beautiful scratch art Advent Calendar. Reserve your kit and register (or not) for the workshop here.

The workshop (November 27, 2-4pm) will be held in a hybrid fashion so you can come to the church or join from home via Zoom!

Kits will be available for pick-up from the church:

• before or after the 11am service on Sunday, Nov 21
• Tuesday, Nov 23 from 10-4
• Thursday, Nov 2 from 10-4
• Saturday, Nov 27 from 12-4 (the workshop starts at 2!)

Everyone loves a soft warm scarf when the weather turns cold.

The Support Church of the Ascension Refugee Fund (SCARF) initiative is offering beautiful handmade scarves at reasonable prices to support our church’s refugee sponsorship work – a great way to stock up on holiday gifts. All proceeds will go to the church’s refugee fund.

Scarves: $10-30 each
Sunday, November 28 from 12-3 at Church of the Ascension, 253 Echo Drive (cash only) 

Proof of vaccination is required and please remember your mask!

Come experience first-hand Ascension’s exciting new project for kids in the community, Rising Up: Arts, Kids, and Community (to be launched in winter 2022). Our partner, arts educator Sarah Posthuma, will present an adapted-for-adults program to lead us in exploring creative movement, visual arts, and story in a playful, soul-nourishing way.

The morning will include time outdoors as well as time indoors, so please dress for the weather and bring a change of shoes as needed. You are also asked to bring your own water bottle or thermos of tea/coffee.

Masks, proof of vaccination, and advanced registration are required. Unfortunately, child care is not available for this event at this point.

Please direct questions to Rhonda.
