Welcome to the Episcopal Church of the Ascension, Hattiesburg’s neighborhood parish! Located in the University Heights Neighborhood, we’re near the vibrant Midtown District of one of Mississippi’s best cities.

​

Our church is easily reached from all areas of the Pine Belt, including the nearby University of Southern Mississippi. We are a diverse family deeply rooted in the sacraments and committed to forming disciples who will carry the message of God’s love and grace into a world that sorely needs the assurance of forgiveness and redemption. We are a group who love Jesus, love people, and would be thrilled to welcome you to our lovely parish.
