Welcome to
Ascension and Saint Agnes!


We are delighted to welcome you, whoever you are, and wherever you come from!

Picture
​Whether you've been an Anglo-Catholic Episcopalian all your life, or if this is your first time participating in Christian worship, we hope that you will join us in prayer and fellowship.

Our members come from a variety of backgrounds and walks of life. We are united as a community through our love for Jesus Christ, which we express through ancient worship forms. In worship, we are united with Christians across the world and throughout time, as we seek to grow in faithfulness. In community, we seek to live into the words we pray. Through our worship in community, we ask the Holy Spirit to teach us how to better love one another and the world beyond our church walls.

Interested in Becoming a Member?


​Twice a year, in the spring and fall, we invite new parishioners to formally join our parish as members. To prepare you for our "Rite of Welcome," we host four weekly community discussions, each on a different topic, such as the nature of faith, the Sacraments, and the Book of Common Prayer. This is a great opportunity to grow in your faith and become part of the fabric of our parish community.

If you are interested in becoming a member, fill out our contact form, or speak to Fr. Dominique after Mass.
