Study of Scripture is an important part of our relationship with Jesus and God’s people

 

Nursery
We are not currently staffing the nursery but it is still available. We ask that young children not be left unsupervised. It is expected that the room will be picked up prior to leaving. We still encourage parents to have their children in worship, but if you need to change a diaper or are too distracted yourself, feel free to use the nursery during worship to decrease the stimuli.
 
Preschool and Elementary Youth Children’s Church/Sunday School
 
Weekly during the
10:30 a.m. worship service
(September – May)
 
The youth, 4 years old through 5th grade, will begin worship with their families, and after the Children’s Message, be dismissed with their teachers to experience the Word, or message of worship in a more age appropriate way. We will then return to worship as an entire congregation during the peace, so that our youth will still receive Communion/Prayers.

We invite you into a conversation about how the last book of the Bible might offer a beginning for us as people of faith.
With this video-based Bible study, you’ll hear stories that invite you to see the promise of God calling from the pages of Revelation. You’ll build skills to read Scripture from its original context and in ways that resonate with our daily lives. With beautifully filmed videos and a helpful discussion guide, you’ll have everything you need to hear a word of hope in a disorienting and chaotic world.

MARTHA  TO  MARY  WOMENS’  BIBLE  STUDY

Sep-Dec and Feb-May on Monday Afternoons

All women are invited!

Mary to Martha is a group of women at different stages of our faith journey gathering together to learn more. You do not need to be a member of Ascension, all women are welcome. We’ll be blessed by your presence and we’ll have a meaningful time together.
 
We meet Mondays at Ascension from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Beginning February 2, 2026. We meet in the Digging Dunes room.

Study materials are $10 per person.

We will study Joanna Weaver’s “Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World”.

Thoughtful and personal, practical and encouraging, this study looks at contrasting sisters of the Bible—Mary and Martha, the friends of Jesus—to gently show readers how they can  deepen their devotion, strengthen their service, and  experience less stress and greater joy.

Joanna Weaver is the bestselling and award winning author. She and her pastor husband John, have three children and live in Montana.
