Life Ascending International

Australia

A Christian Movement for those in their middle and later years.

 Vie Montante (Life Ascending) offers us a community of sharing and mutual help.  It helps us to discern the mission of each one according to his/her capabilities, and to live it out each day.  It helps us to open up to the action of the Holy Spirit, for it is the Holy Spirit who gives us the grace to accept God's love and to share it with others.  In this way we testify to the happiness of living in the hope of the Lord.

"All human life provides opportunities for growth and development, and the latter part of our lives is no exception.  Indeed there is then more time and still much to do.  We remain spiritually young.  We have a mission to fulfil and friendship to share and receive, and Life Ascending exists to enable older people to do just that: 
to come together in friendship
to deepen their spirituality and
to find a joyful fulfilment through Christian witness."
Bishop Howard Tripp, Episcopal Adviser to the Movement in England
