Here at Ascension, the season of Lent is measured in bowls of soup and first communion classes and new member conversations and stories of the presence of Jesus transforming the world before he ultimately journeys to the cross. You are invited to be a part of everything. If this is your first Lent at Ascension, there is much to experience. If you have been a member forever, still Lent offers something new every season.

Wednesdays in Lent, through March 25

On Wednesdays in Lent, after Ash Wednesday, we meet for soup supper at 6 p.m. Please sign-up in the narthex/lobby to bring a soup or loaf of bread. We average between 125 and 150 for soup each week. And then worship begins at 6:45 p.m. and ends at 7:15 p.m. to get littles home and off to bed. Wednesday night soup supper and worship begin Wednesday, Feb. 25. The final one will be March 25.

Thursday Worship, 11:30 a.m., through March 26

For those who are looking for something different in this season of Lent, we are offering a 30 minute worship service every week on Thursdays from 11:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. and continuing all through Lent, concluding on March 26. For those who might like a quieter, more reflective time of worship, Thursday mornings could provide that opportunity. There will be instrumental music, congregational singing, Scripture readings, a brief message, a time for prayer, and communion each week.
