Welcome to Your Neighborhood Church​

In times past the neighborhood church was the central place where people gathered to share their lives and the journey of faith together. Neighbors lived in close proximity and even knew each other’s names. On Sundays they were committed to being together in worship, participating in the joys of life and supporting each other in difficult times.  The neighborhood church was a place of celebration and events, friendship and support, a place to worship and grow in the knowledge and love of God. This is our desire here at Ascension Anglican Church.  

Our community of faith harkens back to a time when churches were embedded in the neighborhood. Our services bring together vibrant elements of worship that are often scattered among other churches. Each of these elements provides a channel of opportunity for you to encounter God in a fresh and dynamic way. God is a living being, not just a set of ideas or religious practices. The goal of worship is to connect with Him, hear His voice, experience His presence, and be touched by His love. There are many connection points in our Sunday Service, which provide for a personal encounter with God: 
  • Quiet moments before the service with the piano calming our hearts
  • Liturgy brings us from the world and into the presence of God with Creeds and Confession
  • Singing joins our hearts in worship through hymns and songs of praise
  • Readings from the Bible allow for the Holy Spirit to speak directly through the Word of God 
  • Sermons afford opportunity for a prophetic encounter with God through the preacher.
  • Fellowship with God and with one another makes His love real in our lives
  • Sacraments of Baptism and Eucharist nurture our souls with His grace.

These conduits are available for God to speak to you and touch your life with His grace and love.  Learn more about us.

Are you longing for a genuine, authentic, place to grow in your spiritual life?. Our Anglican way of worship is designed to facilitate an encounter with God. We are Christians on a journey of faith with Jesus, in the midst of intense and challenging times. Come and join us! Encounter God afresh with friends and fellowship here at Your Neighborhood Church.
