2020 Summer Sermon Series
Conquering Catastrophes, Calamities, and the Coronavirus!
June 13 and 14, Ascension will begin a new sermon series on the Old Testament Book of Jeremiah as we see how the Lord makes it possible to conquer not just COVID-19, but other bad stuff too! Pastor Clark will be sharing some insights he gained from his most recent Doctor of Ministry class which dealt with the Old Testament Book of Jeremiah. Often called “The Weeping Prophet,” God still works through Jeremiah to equip us to conquer! Romans 8:37, “In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.”

Stuff the Truck Again!
Clean up and help support the Capital Campaign with your unwanted items. Stuff the Truck III Savers Collection has been scheduled for Saturday, September 26, 2020. The March Saver’s event generated a little over $600.00 toward the Capital Campaign.
Sunday School at Home
Keep growing in Christ—especially during COVID-19! Resources for Sunday School are available for families. If you would like a take-home packet of Sunday school materials for your home, please contact the church office. This is a wonderful opportunity for parents to teach the faith to their kids! At this point, we plan for in-person Sunday School to resume at the end of August.
In-Person Worship Updates
During the month of June, Ascension will be holding worship at 5:00PM on Saturdays in the church sanctuary and 9:30AM on Sundays in the Word of Life gym. Reservations are required for worship. Seating can be reserved on Ascension’s website (click on “Worship Signup” at the top of the homepage) or by contacting the church office.
Please DO NOT attend in person if you have been exposed to someone with COVID-19 or if you are experiencing symptoms. According to CDC guidelines, if you are over 65 or in a group that is at high risk for infection, you are encouraged to not attend in person.

Capital Campaign Updates
Ascension’s capital campaign “Sharing Christ’s Love” continues! Over the summer months, many improvements to our church and school facilities are planned including: new exterior doors at Ascension, new exterior and interior signs at Word of Life, touchless toilets, sinks, soap dispensers, and paper towel dispensers in the restrooms. Thank you for your continued support of this important care of our facilities for the sake of sharing Christ!
Donations can be made using a designated gift envelope or a plain envelope; be sure to clearly mark “Capital Campaign” on the envelope. The envelope can be placed in the offering basket or in the locked wooden box on the shelf in the narthex. There are yellow-bordered envelopes in the offering envelope boxes that can be used for Capital Campaign contributions. Thank you for your participation!

Ascension will continue to offer brief services of Holy Communion on Wednesdays from 6:30PM to 8:30 PM and Thursdays from 9:00AM to 11:00AM. Sessions are 15 minutes in length. Reservations are required.
