Student leading worship

Ascend Nights

Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?

The Vision

The practice of a steady rhythm calls us to “ascend” to higher ground. Join the youth and young adults from across the SGV for unfiltered worship and creative engagement. Through guest artists, group reflection, and prayer, we gather to “ascend the hill of the Lord” with clean hands and pure hearts, pursuing a deeper relationship with Christ.

Biblical Foundation

  • Psalm 24:1-6 (NIV): We are the generation of those who seek Him. We gather to “ascend the hill of the Lord” with clean hands and pure hearts, pursuing a deeper relationship with Christ.
  • Ephesians 4: Recognizing that Christ ascended to give gifts to His people, we gather as one body, one Spirit, and in one faith to build up the Kingdom in unity.

Target Audience

Young adults, college and high school students (everyone is welcome!) from the Pasadena, Altadena, SGV communities.

February 15 | March 15 | April 19 at 5:30-7 p.m.

The Invitation

We invite the young people of our community to “come as they are” to experience:

  • Deep dives into the richness of the Psalms.
  • Authentic connection with brothers and sisters across different schools and vocations.
  • A sacred space to explore their God-given gifts and callings.
