Church of the Ascension
Welcome to our website; here you’ll discover a little bit about us. We are a community that welcomes all to our table, delights in children, and seeks to follow Jesus in all that we do. We take seriously our call to practice hospitality, to embody forgiveness and hope, and to pursue peace. Desiring the Spirit’s guidance, we’re a community that celebrates, worships and prays together, and cares for the environment entrusted to us.
The best way to learn more about us is to visit us in person. We are located on the canal in downtown Ottawa with parking next door at Immaculata High School and ample bike racks, should you choose to ride. We’d love to see you!
God’s blessings,
Gary
