OUR MISSION:

Ascension Catholic Church is a vibrant, Franciscan-inspired Christian community dedicated to proclaiming the Gospel through word, worship, and service. 

Attending Mass
Are you ready to return to Mass?
Pre-registration is not necessary to attend Mass.
We will check you in when you arrive, provide hand-sanitizer, and guide you to your seat. 
There is space available for you to attend Mass, and we will continue to provide safe physical distancing. 

Our sanctuary space is sanitized after each Mass, and we have carefully designated physically distanced seating. (Overflow seating is also available as needed.)  Masks are required throughout the entire Mass, and physical distancing is maintained when receiving communion.
Please contact the Parish Office if you have any questions or concerns.

Create an atmosphere of reverence,  beauty and prayerfulness in your home near your screen for Mass. Place candles, bible, rosary, crucifix, sacred statues in your prayer space.

Involve your family, especially the little ones, with lighting candles, setting a table cloth, processing with a Crucifix or passing a collection basket.

Practice Patience and Flexibility. This is a challenging time for all of us. God is present with us wherever we are and continues to call us in new ways.
Remember that distractions are normal at Church and at home.

Pray for a strengthening of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Stay Connected. We are striving to  ensure that everyone is connected to someone at the Ascension Parish. Consider connecting to a small group either virtually or in person. Some Groups already have leaders and are ready to welcome you:
Social Concerns, Cooking Group, Women's Group, Monday Food Box Service Group, Rahab's Sisters Friday Night Service Group, St. Vincent de Paul Service Group, Social Concerns Coordination Team, Retired Persons Phone Tree Group.  If there is a group you would like to help be responsible for, contact Sharon Grigar at the Parish Office.

If you are unable to attend Mass in person, please consider giving online and continuing to help out with your weekly offering. Please follow the link below. https://onrealm.org/ascensionpdx/give/now
