Prayer of Colossians Today God is speaking, and he continues to speak to us through the Holy Scriptures. In this passage of Colossians, first is a greeting: Grace and Peace. Next, faith, hope and love, the foundation of Christian life. And thirdly, a litany of prayer for the building up of the church. Colossians 1:1-14 There's a Man in Heaven Now We are destined to come home, to be home with God, to join Jesus there where we will see God and see him face to face. Luke 24:44-53 Believe the Counsel of God These things have happened. We can believe everything else that he said is going to happen. We're going to go home to the Father. John 14:21-29 Alpha & the Omega We are on our way to the Resurrection. The Last Day will be The First Day. Revelation 21 |

I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord!” Psalm 122:1 ----- PLAN YOUR VISIT NOW 
Welcome to Your Neighborhood ChurchIn 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:
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?.
