Adult Ministry
|  Parenting Small Group Class - Sundays at 9:30 a.m. Do you find parenting a challenge? Do you wonder how others are dealing with it and how we can learn from their experiences? Do you wonder how the Bible applies to parenting now? Join us each Sunday morning as we discuss these issues and more in a small group setting leading to on-going small groups meeting at homes at the conclusion of the series.  Journey Sunday School Class - Sundays, 10:45 a.m. Join us as we study the Book of Isaiah. Often, Isaiah is called the "Prince of Prophets" and in this detailed study, we will learn how this important book can apply to our everyday lives. Who was it written to?; What was the background and the situation then?; Who was the audience?; and How does this all apply to us now?  Women's Ministry Fall Gatherings - Friday, October 12
The Women's Ministry invites you to join us for a time of intergenerational friendship and fellowship as we join together to share a meal. Dinners for six to eight women will be hosted and each woman is asked to bring a part of the meal. To be a host, you simply need to provide a warm atmosphere and a table around which women will gather. Come, connect and cherish the beauty of intergenerational friendships. Register 9/30 and 10/7 at the welcome center. |
