Ascension of Christ strives to embody the heritage of the Lutheran church as “the singing church”, giving voice to the hymns and anthems which not only praise our Heavenly Father but also remind and instruct today’s Christian on the theology of Christ’s cross and the Savior’s plan for our salvation.  We utilize primarily the Lutheran Service Book for our hymns and liturgy, accompanied by our Holtkamp pipe organ.  We also have an adult (age 13 and up) choir and a 4-octave handbell choir, as well as a brass ensemble who play for festival and special services.  Everyone is welcome to sing, ring or play with us; church membership is not required; ability to read music is not required (for choir and bells).  If you've never experienced the joy of praising God through music, we encourage you to give it a try.  You won't be disappointed, as “When in our music God is glorified and adoration leaves no room for pride, it is as though the whole creation cried:  Alleluia!  Alleluia!” (LSB 796).  Please contact the Music Director at any time for more information.
