Welcome to ASCEND Church!
Life can feel overwhelming – balancing work, family, relationships, and making sense of the world around us. We believe life isn’t meant to be lived alone but in relationship with a God who deeply cares about every detail of our lives.
Instead of being weighed down by anxiety or despair, God invites us to cast our cares on Him through prayer and to turn to His Word for wisdom. In dependence upon Him, He offers lasting peace and real transformation.
At ASCEND Church, we hope you’ll find a place where you can belong, grow, and discover deeper meaning, purpose, love, and power in your life.
We’re a community of everyday people striving to follow Jesus well and build authentic, vulnerable relationships with one another. While we don’t have all the answers, we trust in a God who does.
Whether you’re curious about faith, looking for connection, or seeking a fresh start, you’re welcome here just as you are.
Our gatherings are relaxed and welcoming, offering space to explore faith at your own pace. You’ll find opportunities for genuine conversations, practical encouragement, and a non-judgmental environment to ask life’s big questions.
God doesn’t ask us to change before coming to Him. He meets us right where we are – with our doubts, questions, and hopes for something new. He simply invites us to come with humility, not pretending we’ve got it all figured out.
The inside-out change that we’re all looking for comes as we encounter Him in worship, wrestle with His truth, and walk alongside others on the same path.
If it’s your first time with us, we’d love to meet you and hear your story. No pressure, no pretense – just a warm invitation to discover what life with God can be like.
Wherever you are in life, there’s a place for you here. Why not join us this week and see for yourself?
