About Ascension

This Community is YOU!

Ascension and Holy Trinity Episcopal Church, located in the Old Historic Northside of Pueblo, is YOUR neighborhood church. For over 125 years, people have gathered in a tradition of faith and worship to support the spiritual needs of families, children, and the entire community.
As a multi-generational church, at Ascension we celebrate the presence of God in our world and welcome people of all backgrounds, lifestyles, and spiritual needs. With a spirit of generosity and gratitude, we welcome you to join in our many fellowship activities.

As a loyal, welcoming Christian community, we gather for Sunday services and many other times throughout the week to feed the spiritual needs of everyone who joins us. Our mission is to engage all people in the wonder of our liturgy, holy scripture, and communion, to restore us to unity with God and each other. Let us join in celebration of written scripture and the love of God through prayer, music, and singing—in the many activities offered for you and your family.

For over 125 years, Ascension Episcopal Church has been a cornerstone of faith and community in Pueblo. As we honor our rich heritage, we find ourselves in a period of transition and anticipation.

We are currently in the process of discerning and calling our next rector—a spiritual leader to guide us into the future with wisdom, compassion, and vision. This journey is one of prayerful reflection, seeking alignment with God's will for our congregation.

We invite you to join us in this sacred process. Your prayers for clarity, unity, and openness to the Holy Spirit's guidance are deeply appreciated. Together, we trust that God will lead us to the shepherd who will walk with us in faith and service.
