Visioning Process Updates
Over the past year, Ascension has undergone a Visioning Process by sending out a parish survey, covering the topics in formation and by working through these areas with the Vestry. Over the coming weeks, we will have updates every Sunday about these 6 areas the Parish has identified, with a weekly video and update in the service.
Watch this video from the Clergy about these upcoming weeks.
