Ascension Day Liturgy, May 14

The Parishes of the Charles River Deanery Welcome All to... Ascension Day Liturgy Thursday, May 14, 2026, 7 pm at Trinity Parish of Newton Centre, 11 Homer Street, Newton, MA 02459. The Ascension of Christ is the occasion on which the risen Christ is taken into heaven after appearing to his followers for forty days (Acts 1:1-11, Mk 16:19). The Ascension marks the conclusion of Jesus’ post-resurrection appearances. It is the final elevation of his human nature to divine glory and the near presence of God. Affirmed by the Nicene and Apostles’ Creeds, the Ascension is celebrated on the Thursday that is the fortieth day of the Easter season. It is a principal feast of the church year in the Episcopal Church.

Trinity Parish Continues to Follow 'Mask Friendly' Protocols

The parish vestry voted in 2022 to go "mask friendly"; that is, unless otherwise indicated, masks are optional at Trinity Parish. Please note that, pending further guidance from the Diocese and local infection rates, the church may in future return to requiring face coverings for in-person gatherings.

For Your Prayers

Remember Sean, our Presiding Bishop, and Julia, our Bishop, and all who minister in the Church.  Remember All Saints Anglican Church, Winterton, Kwazulu-Natal; and the Khethani Christian Fellowship in Khethani Township, KwaZulu-Natal.  Remember Ukraine, the Palestinian territories, Myanmar, Sudan, Ethiopia, Yemen, Haiti, and all places in which there is war, that they may find peace.  Remember all victims of genocide.  Remember Nelly, Joan, Kevin and his family, Shira, Jim, and Anna Marie, that they may know your healing and comfort.  Remember all who mourn.  Remember all who have died in the peace of Christ, and those whose faith is known to you alone—for David, Bette, David, Jeanne (Muffy), Rhys, and Jack; bring them into the place of eternal joy and light.  Remember Eliza and Joel, recently married.
