Fr.
Mike attended the annual Blessing of Hands event at The Church of the Ascension
Sunday May 26.
The blessing of hands is an annual event of the Episcopal Church in South Florida Health Ministry. This blessing serves as a reminder of the way that nurses’ hands, in addition to their minds and hearts, serve as key instruments of compassion, care, and healing for their patients.

12, 2023: LET THERE BE LIGHT!!! Thank you to Rita Hernandez
for your loving work to restore the wooden cross that adorns the front of our
administration building. Rita carefully sanded and refinished the cross then
added permanent LED lights to back light it at night.
The cross was re-blessed during our Sunday service by Fr. Picou and rehung.
The cross was originally made as a gift by past parishioner Mike Anderson who moved away many years ago. The cross is also used on our Altar during Good Friday services.
