Getting Your Heart Ready For His Arrival
Do you remember the feeling when someone important is about to arrive at your place? It’s a mixture of anticipation and excitement and nervousness. Did you make all the correct preparations? Will the person be happy to see you? When and how will the person arrive? Will there be any surprises?
During these weeks before Christmas, we anticipate the imminent arrival of Jesus. He’s an important person! We are about to celebrate his birth. He could return on judgment day at any time. But in worship we realize that he impacts our lives when the Bible is read and when the sacraments are
administered. Suddenly we feel the excitement of an imminent arrival.
This year’s Advent theme, Imminent Arrival, calls to mind how people eagerly anticipate the Christmas season. The Latin word adventus means arrival, and in the Christian church we eagerly anticipate three arrivals of Christ: the commemoration of his birth, his return on judgment day, and the moments he touches our hearts in Word and sacrament. The Lord is near!

Mission Support
100 Missions in 10 Years
A WELS Home Missions initiative to plant 100 new home mission churches and enhance 75 existing ministries from 2023-2033.
No community is the same. No core group is the same. No soul is the same. But we know that all people have the same need for a Savior from sin. Those differences mean that no home mission church starts the same way or follows the same path to maturity. However, we pray that all WELS home mission churches contribute in their own unique way to the ultimate outcome: winning souls for Jesus through the proclamation of the gospel.

Did you know that WELS began mission work in the land down under in 2024?

Australia’s majority language is English and religion is Christian, but an amazing 40% of Australians claim no religion at all! This mission helps bring Jesus to the lost!

World Mission
UKRAINIAN LUTHERAN CHURCH
WELS Christian Aid and Relief is joining with thousands of WELS members and millions of other Christians around the world in praying for the people of Ukraine during this terrifying and uncertain time. The best and safest way to help at this time is to give a gift to the Ukrainian Fund through WELS World Missions. These funds will be used to provide immediate assistance to members of our sister church in Ukraine and others in need.

Recent Worship Services
Ascension Lutheran Church is located in Plymouth, Minnesota and is affiliated with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). Each week our Bible readings, songs, prayers, and message revolve around a central theme to increase our insight and appreciation of another small slice of the Christian life. Join us as we follow Jesus!
