Our Worship
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 We Gather. We encounter God’s Word. We share a Meal at the Lord’s table. and we are Sent into the world. 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 action. Worship is an encounter with God, who saves us through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
