Forty days after Jesus rose from the dead, he ascended into heaven and took his seat at God’s right. Now he reigns far above all power and authority.

Ascension, however, has become one of the forgotten festivals of the church. There are a number of reasons for this. At Mount Lebanon, we’re trying to bring back Ascension. This is a big day for us and we want to make it bigger.

Join us this THURSDAY (5/9) at 5 pm for a picnic. Ham sandwiches and hotdogs will be provided. Bring something to share - a salad, a dessert, or anything else that you’d love to share.

Bring a lawn chair or a blanket. We’ll set up to serve inside and (weather-permitting) we’ll eat outside. If the rain comes, we’ll eat in the community room.

Then, at 6:00 pm we’ll gather inside for an evening service of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving.

We’d love to have you for even part of the afternoon/evening around God’s Word celebrating our ascended Lord.
