INVITE - ENGAGE - EMPOWER
These three words reflect our commitment to the growth and opportunity of the Church of the Ascension. By inviting people to be a part of our mission and ministry, both on the church level as well as the individual level, we seek to deepen our relationships with one another and, thus, with God. A desire to engage one another in ministry, fellowship, and formation opportunities offers us a more intimate experience of Christian friendship. As good leaders, we work to raise up other leadership throughout the parish, empowering others, to keep our mission and ministry vital and inspired.
Why we, as your vestry and clergy, believe this commitment is important:
The Gospel tells us to!
Richard
Offering God to those who seek Him.
Barrett
Love, grow, then do.
Daniel
Engaging our better nature and compassion for our fellow humans.
Evans
Sharing in God's love is knowing God's love.
Christine
Grow, Inspire, Passion, Heal
Julia
That which God would have us do.
Ed
Love mercy, walk humbly with your God.
Brannon
Jesus commissioned us to this.

To find and inspire joy!
