History Biographical:

The Anglican Church of the Ascension (Sudbury, Ont.) began in January 1954 as a mission outreach of the Anglican Parish of the Epiphany (Sudbury, Ont.).

In the church's formative years it was known as the New Sudbury Mission and held services in Charles McRae Public School, Carl Nesbitt Public School, and in parishioner's homes. The first of these services was held on January 24, 1954 at Charles McRae school. Cyril Varney was the lay reader for the congregation until 1957, when Rev. Harry Morrow became the incumbent.

Shortly afterwards, the congregation obtained the land at the corner of Barrydowne Rd and Lasalle Blvd for their church's construction. On May 15, 1958 the work was started with a ground breaking ceremony, and on October 5, 1958 the Cornerstone for the Parish Hall was laid with Bishop Wright officiating. The first service in the new church was held on November 9, 1958. Much of the labour was done by members of the congregation.

In 2004 the Fellowship Hall was build on the north west side of the church, which is used by the congregation and community members for various activities.

Incumbents of Anglican Church of the Ascension have included: Rev. Harry Morrow (1957-?), Archdeacon Anne Germond
