Discipleship
Adult Education
On Sunday mornings, adults gather in one of nine different Sunday school communities for fellowship, focused Bible study, and conversation. Classes are grouped by age, gender, special interests, or curriculum studies. To learn more about specific Sunday school groups, click here.
Youth
Discipleship, fellowship, and mission action are but a few of the things that allow youth in grades 6-12 to connect with God, one another, and the life of the larger church. Opportunities to explore what it means to be disciples of Jesus are provided through Sunday morning Bible studies that are held at 9:30 on the second floor of the church building. In a comfortable setting that includes pool and ping-pong tables, couches, televisions and DVD players, youth use a variety of means to learn, share, and grow together.
Sunday evenings from 5:45-7:00 allow for another opportunity to be together with one another, immediately following the youth music activities. Conversations about where life and faith intersect are served up along with a meal prepared by parents who volunteer to cook and care for us.
Additionally, there are special outings planned through the year for fun and fellowship. With trips to amusement parks, overnight retreats, concerts, movies, lunch and dinner out on the town, desserts, and lock-ins, we look for ways to share life, share faith, and share joy together!
Children
Every Sunday morning at 9:30, children of all ages come together for learning, prayer, and Bible study that incorporates songs, crafts, and lots of fun and laughter. Classes are divided by ages with the infants, toddlers, and preschoolers meeting on the first floor and older children gathering upstairs.
During Sunday morning worship services, children participate in structured worship activities grouped by age. Infants through four year olds remain in the nursery area after Sunday school for age-appropriate learning with paid staff and volunteers who care for them.
Each Wednesday evening during the months of September through May, children discover Jesus through music that they learn and sing together, while also discovering the work of missions through studies about missionaries around the world.
Wednesday Evening Seminars
During the months of September through May, the church gathers for a mid-week meal beginning at 5:15, followed by a time of prayer and study. Generally, the pastor leads the Wednesday evening seminars and has recently guided conversations on such topics as “Praying Unselfishly,” “The Mission of the Church in the 21st Century: A Study in Acts” and “Feeding the Flock: Restaurants and Churches You’d Stand in Line For.” The atmosphere on Wednesday evenings is upbeat, the fellowship is warm, and the interaction across the generations is energizing.
