About Pentecost. . .

The Church celebrates the Festival of Pentecost as the fulfillment and conclusion of the Easter season. The name Pentecost, meaning “the fiftieth day,” originally referred to the Jewish Festival of Weeks, the time of thanksgiving for first-fruits and the ingathering of the harvest (cf. Ex. 34:22). The Christian Church retained the name to mark the completion of the 50-day period after Easter—and the first in-gathering of believers into the Church.

On Pentecost, Christians commemorate the special outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We recall how a humble fisherman, filled with the Spirit, boldly proclaimed Jesus Christ crucified and risen from the dead. We give thanks that a multitude of hearers repented and believed. Three thousand people, from all over the world, were baptized and received the gift of the Spirit. Sent by God the Father, and by His Son, Jesus Christ, the Spirit came to continue the Father’s work on earth.

Welcome to Ascension!

We are located at 3801 Oakwood Avenue NW in Huntsville, Alabama. We also have a preschool and child development center (Ascension Lutheran CDC) that is behind the main church building.

We have two worship services on Sunday morning with Bible study for children, youth and adults between the two services.  We also conduct a Monday evening service. Special services are held during the seasons of Advent (four weeks before Christmas) and Lent (six weeks before Easter). Our schedules are posted for these services as the special seasons approach. Private Confession and Absolution with Pastor is available by appointment.

"Drive-In" services on Sunday mornings are available at both 8:00 and 10:45 AM.  Come to the parking lot and tune your vehicle radio to FM 88.7.  Listen to the service in your vehicle.

The church's office hours are from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. Our phone number is (256) 536-9987.
