The Flowering of the Cross on Easter Sunday Morning--a simple tradition that makes the heart glad. Come with family, come with friends, or come on your own to the front steps of Ascension Memorial Church on Easter Sunday. Add a daffodil or two to the cross as a thank you for the gift of joy, hope, life, and Spring!

Even our soul needs sustenance!

Every Sunday morning at 9:30AM, coming to you LIVE on the Ascension Memorial Church page, Church Snacks are served up by our Rector, Brad Clark , who appreciates a good snack.

Church Snacks might include a riff on the Gospel story, a comment as to why John the Baptist snacks on locusts, or a review of the best places to go looking for God.

Treat yourself to Church Snacks every Sunday morning at 9:30AM. They won’t spoil your appetite and they might make you smile.

Dear Friends and Parishioners of Ascension Memorial Church,

The popular, annual Easter Egg Hunt held on the Parish House grounds following Easter Sunday services at Ascension has been suspended two years in a row, as of this Easter Sunday 2021.

This regretful consequence of the pandemic has not rattled the Easter Bunny, however. There are plenty of Easter Eggs coming our way, but the Easter Bunny will need assistance to be sure that every last Easter Egg is discovered and treasured by one of our wee friends of the Easter Bunny.

Baskets of Easter Eggs delivered to us by the Easter Bunny will be available to be picked up at church on Saturday, April 3rd. The Easter Bunny confidently asks those willing to place these Easter Eggs around your home in clever places for curious, excited children to find on Easter Sunday morning.

Also, if picking up your basket of Easter Eggs from Ascension Church at 31 County St. Ipswich presents a hardship, please let us know by contacting the Parish Office and we will endeavor to make a delivery.

Get hopping and contact the Parish Office ([email protected] or by calling 978-356-2560) TODAY, if you wish to help the Easter Bunny make this year’s Easter celebration of hope and renewal fun for everybody!

~ Happy Easter from Friends of The Easter Bunny
