Summer Worship Offered Wednesday Evenings, Beginning May 29


    Summer Worship Services begin Sunday, May 26.  We will be doing a single Sunday Worship Service at 9:30 am.  A time of coffee fellowship will follow.

    This summer Ascension will also be offering a Wednesday night worship service for those who are camping, traveling or working on Sunday mornings. Truth be known, you can come for any reason you want! The service will begin at 7 pm and be preceded by a "summer fare" dinner served here at the church. Each Wednesday evening’s sermon text, lessons and music will be the same as the previous Sunday. The monthly newsletter will let you know if there will be Holy Communion, Children's Messages, etc. for these services, based on several factors. These services will run from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. If you're aware of someone who has a difficult time getting to church on a Sunday morning, be sure to let them know about our mid-week services! 

The mission of Ascension Lutheran Church is to glorify God and bring people to a full personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ
