Church of the Ascension of the Lord ( Serbian: Храм Вазнесења Господњег) is a Serbian Orthodox church in the small village of Cetina in Šibenik-Knin County, Croatia.

Built in 1940 by Marko and Jelena Četnik, ^[1] the church was destroyed during the Second World War and rebuilt in 1974 when new bells were purchased and a stone fence was erected around the church gate. ^[2] During the Croatian War of Independence, the church and its inventory was burned down and destroyed by Croatian Armed Forces. ^[2]

This church was built modeled on the Temple St. Joachim and Anne at the Studenica Monastery. ^[3]
