Education Philosophy
We believe that religious education is a life-long pursuit for Christians. We
emphasize the Sunday education hour and Bible studies for kids and adults alike.
Our various education opportunities allow kids and adults to further their study
of our faith and the Bible, as well as enabling us to benefit from fellowship
and discussion with other members.
Education Offerings
Sunday School - Sunday School classes are offered for ages 3
through adult each week.
There is no Sunday School for children during the summer months. We will
resume in September.
Pastor's Adult Bible Class will continue to meet weekly through the Summer,
beginning at 9:15 a.m. on Sunday mornings.
Wednesday Night Live - Wednesday Night Live is a concept that
incorporates fun, fellowship, music rehearsals, dinner, and religious education.
Kids in grades 3 through 12 are encouraged to attend from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. each
Wednesday during the school year. This 2-hour block of time incorporates
religious education, dinner, and a rotating series called music-arts-worship.
The Wednesday Night Live Program will resume in September.
Pre-Confirmation and Confirmation Classes - Confirmation consists
of a 2-year program at Ascension, which can be begun in 7th grade.
Pre-confirmation classes are offered to kids in 3rd through 6th grades.
Pre-confirmation and confirmation classes supplement and complement Sunday
school, providing a solid religious education in preparation for Confirmation.
Pre-confirmation and confirmation classes are held during the school year as
part of Wednesday Night Live.
Confirmation and Pre-confirmation Classes will resume in September.
Vacation Bible School - Traditionally offered for a week during
the summer, Vacation Bible School is a fun and educational opportunity for kids
