STUDENTS
Going higher.
Are you looking for a place to connect with an older girl or guy mentor who’s just one step ahead of you in life? Someone who remembers the pressures of high school and who wants to help you discover how God can meet you right where you are? Do you want to be a part of a community that collectively helps you connect with your friends, go deeper with Jesus, and experience the presence of God? Wherever you find yourself along the journey, we’d love to walk this road with you!
This is Emery’s story:
"Ascent has been a wonderful experience that I am so grateful to be a part of. My mentor is so incredible and I love the time we get to spend together. She has helped guide me closer to the Lord, and I am very thankful for the relationship we have. Ascent is a joyous and uplifting community that has helped strengthened my faith and definitely has a positive impact on me."

MENTORS
Relationships change lives.
Do you want to make a marked impact? Jesus could have built His Kingdom in any infinite number of ways. In His perfect wisdom he chose to use his limited time on earth to build relationships with His disciples — and then asked them to do the same. All of us crave connection, whether we know it or not. It’s innate within us. Ascent provides a space for you to DO what Jesus has invited all of us to do — make a disciple. Mentoring is a simple way for you to share your life with just one high school student. If you’re looking for a place to grow in your faith and invest your life in the next generation, Ascent is the place for you.
This is Lynden and Olivia’s experience:
PARENTS
One by one.
We’re so excited to invest in your kids. A missing piece in many incredible youth groups is the capacity of leaders to invest in their students one on one. That’s where Ascent steps in to fill that need. Hundreds of students have been impacted through our mentor relationships — and we’re just getting started!
Whether you’re a parent of a student or a mentor, we need your help to make it all happen. We have a variety of needs ranging in everything from prayer, to host homes for weekly Bible Studies and monthly worship nights, encouraging our mentors, to fundraising efforts to support our staff and ministry, and more. Will you join us?
