Children's ministry information:
AWANA
Every Wednesday evening
during the school year (except during Advent and Lent)
Powerful Bible truths taught at age-appropriate levels, interactive Bible lessons, crazy-fun games and precious time memorizing God's Word! Our students, as a whole, have been known to recite over 1000 Bible verses in an AWANA year! The kids are excited to learn the Bible through the AWANA program and to bring friends!

SUNDAY SCHOOL
3 yr. old - high school
Every Sunday during the school year
​
Ascension's Sunday school teachers
love Jesus and want to help guide
kids through Bible teachings.
CAMP VBS
Vacation Bible School meets Camp!
3 days and 2 nights in June
for students exiting 4th, 5th or 6th grade
The Ascension church grounds become the "camp" and mature teen leaders serve as "camp counselors", with supervision, of course. In addition, several adults from our church plug-in to challenge students to grow in their walk with Jesus! It is an experience like no other and we'd love for your student to join us.
In addition to faith-building activities, there are service projects and off-site trips (such as laser tag, fishing, tubing, and swimming!).
​
Pre-registration is required so we
have enough seatbelts available!
Call or email Shanda for more details
(camp dates typically announced in January)
