Loving God
The heart of our life here at Church of the Ascension is life-changing worship. Following the Book of Common Prayer,
our worship is liturgically structured, biblically based, and Spirit-filled.
Our hope is to develop the spiritual habits of the mature Christian through scripture, tradition, and reason.
