Sunday Worship
11:00 AM
For Ascension Lutheran, as part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Worship stands at the center of our life of faith. Through God’s word, water, bread, and prayer, we are nurtured in faith and sent out into the world.
The pattern that forms our worship begins with gathering together. Then, we encounter God’s Word through scripture reading and a sermon or homily where our pastor helps us connect scripture to our current lives. Then we are invited to share a Meal at the Lord’s table. Finally, we are Sent into the world as his ambassadors to share His message of Grace. But we do not think about worship so much in terms of what WE do. Worship is fundamentally about what God is doing, and our response to God’s actions. Worship is an encounter with God, who saves us through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
On Sunday mornings, we use the Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal and follow one of the communion settings. You can get an idea of what’s happening by watching our latest service on YouTube.com/@thisisthefeast.org
Wednesday Evening Mid-Week Prayer
7:00 PM Wednesdays
Wednesday evening prayer service gives us a chance to really focus on what’s happening in our lives and to pray for one another. It’s very casual, just a group of people around a table talking and praying. We use a prayer service liturgy to guide us through and read and discuss a reading from the Bible. Often, when the service closes, we just relax and take a breath, knowing that we’ve encountered God and can move forward in our week just a little bit more centered.
Wednesday Evening Table of Grace
5:30 PM - 2nd Wednesday of the Month
Table of Grace is a new way to experience church. We gather and eat together, creating relationships. After the meal, you have the option to stay for a Jesus story that helps us understand how Christ is very much alive and active in our lives today.
