Church of the Ascension is part of the Mother of God Family of Parishes:
a joyful Catholic Community who welcomes, inspires and challenges all to be Christ-like

Welcome

to the Church of the Ascension

In 1955, the Church of the Ascension was founded.  In 2022, as a result of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati Beacons of Light Pastoral Plan, Ascension joined St. Albert the Great Parish and St. Charles Borromeo Parish to form the Kettering Catholic Community, now called the Mother of God Family of Parishes.  The priests serving the parishes include Pastor Fr. Tom Nevels, Fr. Chibueze Asiegbulem, and Fr. Tony Sanitato.  Rooted in sacramental life, we strive to be a vibrant, active and welcoming Catholic community.  We encourage all to give glory and praise to God through knowing and sharing God's love in our homes, in our communities and throughout the world.

"I was walking, and I was on the front right.  Father was carrying the monstrance behind me.  The whole time I just kept thinking, 'Jesus is right there behind me.  He's right there in such a real way.'  I felt like God had finally gotten through to me, and I finally understood."

~ Madeline Kramer: Ascension Parishioner & Archbishop Carroll High School Senior


Madeline and thousands of others took part in the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage last summer, culminating with the “Jesus is Here” event where 3,000+ people knelt in Eucharistic Adoration on Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati.
