Together We Rise!
“The act of rising to a higher level”
It all started when a group of friends began to meet and prayerfully consider what it would look like to pursue an experience in which people who did not look the same would come together to worship and encourage each other in their faithfulness to Jesus. In those moments the radical idea of a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-generational body of believers began to grow in our hearts! As we prayed and studied God’s Word, it became increasingly clear that God was up to something and that the best way to accomplish His purposes for us was through the formation of a new, local gathering of God’s people. After a time of reflection, this core group of 8 passionate people entered into covenant agreement to serve Christ and His purposes as Ascension Church...
I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.
