Ascension Day Evensong, May 29
On Thursday, May 29, 2025, 7 pm at Parish of All Saints 1773Beacon Street, Brookline, MA 02445, the All Saints Choir will offer Choral Evensong to celebrate the Feast of the Ascension. The service features music by Richard Webster, C.V. Stanford, and Peter Philips.
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.
