Vision and Mission

Overview

The Vision and Mission of the Church of the Ascension is to be a growing and vibrant congregation that serves and welcomes all God’s people, and exemplifies the risen Lord Jesus Christ in thought, word and action.

Good and gracious God, we pray for all who have yet to know of your love and mercy. May the Church of the Ascension be so inspired by your Holy Spirit that it may serve as a beacon of hope and a witness to the gospel for all people. Grant that we may continually grow in our own knowledge and love of you as we strive to use all that we have and all that we are to follow and imitate your beloved son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
