Today, we welcome Pope Leo XIV as the new leader of the Catholic Church—a moment of hope rooted in tradition and open to the future. At Ascension, we look forward to his leadership and all he will bring to this important role. We offer our prayers for Pope Leo XIV.

Today, we give thanks for the life and legacy of Pope Francis—a faithful servant who reminded the world of the power of love and humility. His unwavering care for the poor and vulnerable, and his call to compassion, will continue to guide us.

God's presence was seen in the most vulnerable human form on that first Christmas. As you recognize the sacred around you, may your hearts be filled with joy as you welcome God's presence in your life. Merry Christmas!

On this blessed Christmas Eve, is your heart ready?
