About this church
Ascension Episcopal Church offers two Sunday Eucharists at 2525 Seagler Road in Houston. The 8 a.m. Rite I service is spoken, traditional, and without music, using a bulletin drawn from the Book of Common Prayer. The 10:30 Rite II service includes choir and music. All baptized Christians are invited to receive Communion. Nursery care for ages zero through four is available from 9:30 a.m. to noon, supporting families attending formation and the later liturgy.
Children from prekindergarten through high school meet on the second floor of the Parish Life Building, while adults gather in the church library for education. The choir includes experienced singers and people who do not read music, provided they can match pitch, and helps lead congregational worship with energy. Ascension was founded in 1961, became a diocesan mission in 1962 and a parish in 1966, then established its school in 1972. Its current priorities include pastoral care, worship, outreach to people experiencing poverty, and church-community growth. Visitors can choose the quiet early service or the choral later service, and families can combine 9:30 formation and nursery care with 10:30 Communion.
