Christmas is a time of warmth, reflection, and connection

It is when we gather to celebrate the season and the people we hold dear. At the darkest time of the year, the glow of a single candle becomes a powerful symbol of hope and remembrance.

Whether in honor of a loved one or as a symbol of a wish or aspiration for the year to come, your dedicated candle will shine brightly in the Church of the Ascension.

For a gift of $250 or more, your candle will represent the person or the message you choose, becoming a part of our concert and filling the room with light and meaning.

Your tribute will be included in a special listing within the concert program, allowing your dedication to be shared with all in attendance. You’ll also have the opportunity to personally light your candle before the concert begins, creating a quiet moment of reflection and connection. 

For those dedicating candles, we warmly welcome you to join us at a pre-concert champagne reception hosted by our new Executive Director, Jonathan Bradley, and other special guests—a time to celebrate and share in the joy of the season together.
