Adult Ministries


Adult Small Groups

An important reason people come to Ascension is to make a connection with other people.  Community is what motivates people to return, to serve, to care.  For some people, making connections happens naturally, but that is not the case for everyone.  At Ascension, we are intentional about building community.  One of the ways we do that is through Small Groups.

CLICK HERE for information on Small Groups at Ascension.

Cross+Generational Involvement

Adults are encouraged to be involved in the faith formation of our younger generations. Ascension provides many ways to do this! Adults can be Sunday school guides or teachers, VBS volunteers, prayer or praise partners for 2 & 4 year olds, Confirmation guides, and Youth Group leaders. Contact the pastor if you have an interest in any of these cross+generational opportunities.

Women's Circles
