Types of churches in Ashkum

Ashkum Catholic Churches

Ashkum’s Catholic congregations are long-established, serving multi‑generational farming families from the village, Ashkum Township, and nearby country roads and hamlets like L’Erable. Expect sacramental life, seasonal traditions during Advent and Lent, and parish gatherings that anchor the small‑town calendar.

Evangelical & Non-Denominational

These churches emphasize contemporary worship with practical, Bible‑centered teaching and a welcoming, casual culture. In and around Ashkum’s small village center, you’ll find home‑based small groups and youth nights that draw families from nearby Clifton, Chebanse, and Gilman.

Country Parishes & Rural Outreach

Small country congregations around Ashkum focus on close‑knit community, potlucks, and service projects that support farm families. Ministries often follow the agricultural rhythm—planting through harvest—with care for neighbors affected by weather, market swings, and long field days across the prairie.

Sermon clips from Ashkum churches

43s
“Do you want help determining the difference between love and lust? It's been said that love can wait to give, but lust can't wait to get. Genuine love says, I'm really attracted to to my the person I'm dating. I'm really attracted to my fiance, and I'm going to wait. I'm going to wait to be intimate with my fiance until we get married. I'm going to wait. Love can wait to give, but lust can't wait to get. Let that guide you in discerning the difference between love and lust. Are we willing to wait on God's plan and to say, okay, I really want this, but I'm going to trust that God is sovereign and he knows best.”
42s
“Here's another reminder from the beginning of the sermon. We've got to look to our own hearts. If you've left to sit after objects or power or fame or wealth or people, it's time to cast that off. If you stand guilty before God of lusting after anything that's taken his place in your heart, it's time to repent, to turn around. Enough damage has already been done. And you might say, no damage has been done. Oh, it's coming. Don't bring anymore. Walk back into the loving arms of your savior. Remember the point. Our cravings shape our destiny. If we crave stuff, that stuff will be the death of us. But if we crave Jesus, he'll give us life.”
35s
“Paul is saying we don't have time for foolishness. It's time to wake up. It's time to grow up. We're running low on time to be foolish. We can't be distracted by lusts, by substances, by by gossip. We've got a job to do before the sun returns, and we're on a short deadline. We have work to do, church. We've got to wake up the sleeping. We have children to disciple. We've got a living God to worship. There is no time to waste. Put on Jesus, but put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for the flesh to gratify its desires.”
41s
“When humanity rejects the absolute truth of God, human reasoning loses its ultimate anchor. Our thinking becomes futile, resulting in a fractured worldview calling evil good and good evil. Sex outside the bounds of Christian marriage will result in pain, period. And there will be collateral damage. It was created for a purpose to bring us joy, to bring God glory, to build his creation, but when we abuse it, it'll bring pain to us and to those around us. The question is, do we trust his design? The root of sin is pride.”
31s
#PilateConfirmedDeath
“Sorry. It's Easter. You're like, that's Good Friday. But Easter doesn't come unless Good Friday happens. And he loved you that much that he was willing to endure all of that. And besides that, even secular historians like Josephus and Tacitus said that Jesus died under Pontius Pilate's watch, confess and believe that Jesus died. Good night.”
27s
#EarlyCreedProof
“As Strobel went and said, okay, let me see what they were saying at first. Maybe they were saying at first that he was just a good teacher who who died. And then maybe over the centuries, they started saying he rose again, and they saw the first Corinthians chapter 15 creed It was written within months of the resurrection of Christ that said that he was buried, died, and rose on the third day, lightning fast from a historical time frame. This wasn't something that grew over time.”
34s
#UnitedInChrist
“It doesn't matter if you're Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian, a member of Trinity Church, or walking to any church for the first time. If you confess Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior, you're a part of the body and his spirit lives in you. Those are the things that matter. Verses 14 through 20. For the body does not consist of one member, but of many. If the foot should say,”
42s
#EmpathyAmongBelievers
“Here's an additional reason why this is so important. As the verse we just read in verse 26 says, we're in this together as a body of believers. You ever seen a time when someone is struggling and your heart just goes out for them? Or when others are doing well, you couldn't be happier for them? That's how we should be with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Yet, that's a little easier said than done. How many times have you told someone whether today or in general, I'm fine or I'm okay when you know you're not.”
34s
#UseYourGifts
“I know I mostly focused on this in the context of being in the church, but it applies to everything we do. You can be a CEO, a ditch digger, a stay at home parent, professional athlete, a volunteer or anything else. All of these things are equal in God's playing field as long as one thing is true. Are you using your talents for God's kingdom and glory and bringing people closer to Christ?”
34s
#BetterTogether
“Just like how our text will talk about different ways we can be a part of the body, we can also care for one another in sort all sorts of ways both in and outside of the church. One thing that this means is that we all can care for one another. It's not a question of yes or no, but a question of how. The point of the message is this, we are better together and caring for one another, whatever we do, makes us better together.”
