Welcome to Elevation

We like to say Elevation is a place for the spiritually curious. If that’s you, you’ll fit right in.
Elevation is a young, vibrant church where students, families, and people of all ages gather to celebrate God and the journey of life.

The Season of Lent

The first Sunday of Lent is on March 6.  This year, our preachers will be drawing themes from the Revised Common Lectionary.  As we (hopefully) emerge from pandemic life in the coming months, we want to join with others around the world who are also reading through the Lectionary while making the same journey.  We’ll invite you to read along during the week, as you prepare your heart and mind for Sunday worship.  You could even get started now!

On January 2nd, all are invited to join together for either an outdoor walk through the woods, or a ZOOM call for a time of interaction and reflection. 

We will be watching the weather, as well as regional guidelines around COVID restrictions for gathering, and if our outdoor walk is not possible, we will all shift over to the ZOOM call option. 

We’re looking forward to this meaningful time together – either outdoors or online!

In our second week of locating ourselves in this season of change, join Steve as we turn to the story in Exodus 16 of longing for Egypt. We'll be exploring the purgative way, recognizing that this season is both gift and grief, and asking reflective questions of what...

Virtual Community

Over the months of March and April, we have walked through a transition away from our Sunday morning online services on YouTube as we have known them over the past two years, and towards in-person services at 22 Willow. While most of our community members are ready for this transition, we do recognize that there are members of our community who will be impacted by the ending of our Sunday morning virtual services. Read more about this transition here. 

“Church at its simplest and most obvious is a protected place, an available time for God to have conversation with us and for us to have conversation with God in company of God’s people.”
