Please join us for worship on Sunday, May 28th, 2017, as we celebrate Ascension Sunday at our service at 9:30 am.  All ages are welcome!  You are also welcome to join us for coffee and fellowship in the downstairs hall following the service.

The Ascension of Jesus is the departure of Christ from earth into the presence of God.  The well-known narrative in Acts 1 takes place 40 days after the Resurrection.  Jesus, in the company of the disciples, is taken up in their sight after warning them to remain in Jerusalem until the coming of the Holy Spirit.  As he ascends a cloud hides him from their view. 

Ascension Day was Thursday, May 25th, 2017, but is traditionally celebrated on the following Sunday, the week before Pentecost Sunday.
