The Ascension-Holy Trinity Shelter welcomed its first guests on December 19, 2015. We continue to run the shelter every Saturday and Sunday night, offering a hot meal, a warm bed, and friendly conversation for up to twenty men.
We are currently seeking volunteers to stay the night and supervise. Training will be provided -- you will stay with another experienced volunteer, and have lots of help and support. Please consider becoming a “sleeper” - helping overnight through breakfast.
Contact Chris at (917) 312-1257 or email shelter107@gmail.com if you would like more information.

On October 18, 2015, Fr. Kearney announced the Ascension Homeless Shelter Ministry
For this ministry, we need three sets of volunteers:
If you do not have time or cannot assist in the shelter personally, please consider a monetary donation. We will use these funds to purchase needed supplies, food, etc. Donations will be collected in the rectory. Checks should be made payable to Ascension Church and write “Homeless Shelter” in the note. Thank you.
