RISE Core Team

You don’t have to be a theologian or philosopher to accompany a student on their journey closer to Christ, you just have to be willing to walk alongside them.

We need your help to create a vibrant Core Team family right here at Ascension.


We all need lighthouses to guide our way through the storms of life. Where do we go when life gets tough or messy? The people we trust, the people we can count on.

Core Team is all about building intentional relationships with teens so that they have another person to look to who can help them stay grounded in Jesus and navigate the storms of life. You are the answer to a teen’s prayer.
