A warm welcome
The Church of the Ascension extends a very warm welcome to you and your family. You are among many English-speaking people of all nationalities and denominations in the greater Nuremberg area who have sought out a place to worship in the English language.

Who we are
The Church of the Ascension, Munich, is a member of the world-wide Anglican Communion and is under the jurisdiction of the Convocation of American Episcopal Churches in Europe. About half of our members  are Anglican, but we warmly invite those of other Christian denominations to join us and take part in our worship and parish life.
One of our tasks is to provide English services not only in Munich, but wherever there is a need within Bavaria. So far we offer services in Ingolstadt (every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month), Augsburg (every 1st Sunday) and now also in Nuremberg.

“For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.”
                                                                                                           Matthew 18,20

Worship
Our worship, which is traditional, yet warm and personal, is the centre of our parish life. The Book of Common Prayer and the Hymnal of the American Episcopal Church are used for the services.

How you can participate

Sunday service
Every 2nd Sunday at 5 p.m.
at St. Jacob’s Church,
U-Bahn stop Weißer Turm, Nuremberg

Friday service
Every 4th Friday of the month at 6:30 pm at the Chapel Klinikum Nord, Klinikum Nord, Nuremberg.

Fellowship
Within the Anglican tradition we warmly encourage active involvement by all our members in our activities as well as in the leadership of our Church.
If you would like to support a fellowship activity, coffee hour after the service, music for the service, Sunday school .….. Come and share your ideas with us.

How to reach us

By public transportation
From Nuremberg main station (Hauptbahnhof) take the U1 to Weißer Turm (it’ll be the second stop). Climb up to the surface and the church will be right in front of you, at Jakobsplatz.

We are looking forward to see you soon!

Why we are here

The Church of the Ascension serves as a spiritual home for English speaking people of all nationalities and Christian denominations in greater Munich and Bavaria.

Our activities have three purposes:

+ To serve God through beautiful and meaningful worship and to share with the world the Good News of Jesus Christ

+ To provide ministry to our parish members through worship, fellowship, Christian education and pastoral care

+ To care for the needy outside the parish, in Germany and throughout the world, through Outreach projects, either alone or in cooperation with others.

St. James the Less Arts and Crafts Afternoon

Several members of St. James the Less met on a Saturday afternoon to prepare for this year’s Easter Bazaar. We prepared Easter candles with a special technique. Knitting was brought along with designs for egg warmers and Easter eggs. We talked and shared stories. Most of the items are done at home where members prepare individually for the bazaar, but it is always a joy to come together and share – stories and designs.
