Church of the Ascension

Christian Formation

All of us…seeing the glory of the Lord…are being transformed into the same image…for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit. 2Cor.3:18. Christian formation is precisely this - the ongoing process of being formed in the likeness of Christ. It is the goal and unique distinctive of Christian education. This formative process comes about as we choose to be the church in community and do the work of the church, in loving response to God with the help of the Holy Spirit.
