Walker Program

Ascension provides our members and our community with a place for physical exercise through walking in our FLC gym weekday mornings from 7 to 10 a.m. This program also provides a forum for getting to know one another and many connections and friendships have been formed over the years. Ascension members serve as hosts for the program, and we are looking for additional volunteers to serve either on a scheduled or substitute basis. Contact Pam Rinas (pamrinas@icloud.com or 816.679.7996) or any of our Walker Hosts (Johna Brill, Darlene Crain, Darrel and Brenda Frolin, Phyllis Kohl, Candy King, Joyce Pinkepank, Doug Rinas, Theresa Trautman) if you are interested or have further questions. Thank you for your prayerful consideration of this opportunity to serve and support this wonderful program.

Fellowship in the Family Life Center

A reminder that there is coffee available in the Family Life Center after Church. Grab a cup and visit with friends.

Need Pastoral Care?

Want to hear the sermon again?

We are so blessed with the quality of preaching we hear each week. It's helpful to be able to go back and listen to the sermons. Now you can! Check out the church's YouTube channel - Ascension Lutheran Church Kansas City MO. Even better - subscribe to the channel so you'll get updates. We've started posting videos of each week's sermon. Take another listen!
