Ascension launches 2027 planner to give the faithful a space to plan their daily lives while keeping them centered around the Catholic Faith.
[EXTON, Pa. - July 31, 2026] In collaboration with Abiding Together podcast, the Ascension Planner 2027 is back for another year, ready to help Catholics plan their daily lives peacefully and prayerfully.
This year, the acclaimed planner is offered again in a large and a small size, perfect for use at home, at work, or on the go.
The partnership brings exclusive monthly reflections, weekly prayers, and a new “Word of the Year” worksheet from Abiding Together co-hosts Heather Khym, Sr. Miriam James Heidland, SOLT, and Michelle Benzinger into a planning tool built to help Catholics structure their days around prayer and the liturgical calendar.
Along with traditional planning tools like monthly and weekly calendar spreads, both sizes of the 2027 planner feature many intentionally Catholic elements, including:
- A "Word of the Year" worksheet from the creators of the Abiding Together podcast
- Monthly PLAN journal space for spiritual reflection as you enter each month
- Weekly Scripture and gratitude-based prayers—perfectly paired with The Bible in a Year® reading plan
- Liturgical guidance throughout: feast days, holy days of obligation, and more marked on the calendar
- Flexible weekly layouts and bullet journaling (large size only) for scheduling, goal-setting, or prayer intentions
- Customizable daily habit trackers, including space for Divine Mercy devotion
- Common Catholic prayers and visual guides to the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet
- Nightly space for reflection, contrition, and thanksgiving (large size only)
- Laminated monthly tabs, back pocket, elastic band closure, and a pen loop for sturdier use
- And more!
