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.

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.

MARTHA TO MARY WOMENS’ BIBLE STUDY
Sep-Dec and Mar-May on Monday Afternoons
All women are invited!
We will begin our Fall Bible Study with the study of “Elijah” by Priscilla Shirer. This is a journey through the life and times of the prophet Elijah to discover how the fire on Mount Carmel was forged in the valley of famine. And how the emboldened , fiery faith you desire is being fashion by God in your life right now.
Priscilla Shirer is married, a mother, Christian speaker, evangelist, and for the past twenty years in full time ministry to women. She and her husband Jerry have founded “Going Beyond Ministries”. She is the author of more than a dozen books and bible studies.
Our study will begin on Monday, September 8, 2025 at Ascension from 1:00 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. We will meet in the Digging Dunes room. This study will end on Monday, November 3, 2025. (No classes on 9/22 & 10/27)
Mary to Martha is a group of women at different stages of our faith journey. You do not need to be a member of Ascension to participate. All women are welcome. We’ll be blessed by your presence and have a meaningful time together. Participant books are $10.00. Please call or text Joyce Richardson at 989-274-6787 to secure a book for the study.
