A contemplative service of prayers, readings, and music. 
Sunday, December 18, 2022. 5 PM.

You are warmly invited to attend this contemplative service of prayers, readings and music, and a time to acknowledge the “blue” feelings we have at Christmas time. Together, we’ll reflect on the pain, the loneliness, and the sadness we may feel and offer it to God for healing and transformation.

Embracing it all…

June 20, 6-7:30

Join expressive arts facilitators Sarah Posthuma and Linda Vanderlee for Embracing it all… an evening of exploring COVID loss, joy and change through the arts.

The event is part of a larger Together Ottawa Ensemble initiative, where residents are encouraged to plan community events between June 11-26 to hold space for how we are feeling about COVID.

Open to individuals and families of all ages, participants will be guided through the collective process of making mosaics and there will also be time for storytelling, music-making, and movement.

Suggested donation: $10/individual or $20/household, with proceeds from the event going to Ascension Arts initiatives
