Dorcas Circle Meeting Update

Dorcas Circle will NOT meet on February 16. We will meet on February 23 at 6:00p.m. in the Fellowship Hall.

Prayers of Thanksgiving are being shared by Rick and Julie Lane for the recovery of their daughter, Jennifer Calvin, following her car accident in November. The caring prayers and responses from Ascension members have been especially meaningful. She loved worshipping here.

Thank you for the prayers, the cards, the memorial gifts and for those who were able to be with us for my mom’s service. Our lives are made fuller by being members of this Ascension church family. God bless you! Kathy Jenkins and the family of Carole Calia.

Ascension Lutheran Church

Serving Our Community

On Sunday November 23, Ascension members served more than 100 Thanksgiving meals at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church. This monthly meal is offered to those in the surrounding community including unhoused people in the area. Vicar Walt Little led a time of worship accompanied on piano by Mark Lippe.

This was a multi-generational event as Johnna Brill served with her daughter Flannery Bartels and her grandsons, August and Jude. Additional members who provided desserts or served at the event include Martha Eckhoff, Darrel Frolin, Candy King, Mary Lippe, Nancy Lynch, Bev Mettlen, and Doug and Pam Rinas.

Funding for this event was supported by Thrivent Action Team grants.

We thank God for the opportunity to serve.
