About this church

Ascension Catholic Church in Halethorpe, Maryland, at 1527 Potomac Avenue, is one of two campuses of the Catholic Community of Ascension and St. Augustine, known as CCASTA, in the Archdiocese of Baltimore. Masses at Ascension are on Saturday at 4:00 p.m., Sunday at 8:15 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., and Tuesday and Thursday at 9:00 a.m. The other campus, St. Augustine Church in Elkridge, has its own Mass schedule listed on the same website. Music at the liturgy includes both traditional hymns and contemporary songs, and Masses can be watched online through the livestream and message series.

The parish describes its vision as helping people grow in a relationship with Jesus Christ, and it offers a children's program called Gen Now that includes a children's liturgy for pre-K through fifth grade during the 9:00 a.m. Mass and 10:30 a.m. at St. Augustine, plus a family catechism program. A student ministry for middle and high school students meets on Sunday evenings and uses Alpha for Youth. Adults can find sacrament preparation, including a Becoming Catholic process, along with the Knights of Columbus, Legion of Mary, a men's club, adult discipleship, prayer shawl and prayer circle groups, pastoral care, and a grief support group. Confirm Mass times on the website or with the Ascension office, which is open Tuesday and Thursday.
