Tuesday Evening Edition

We'll start the winter session with “The Kingdom” (7-week video series); Cost: $10. Join us as we journey with Israel as they enter the Promised Land.

Wednesday Morning Bible Study
Starting January 5 at 9:25am

The Bible is God’s big love story and consistently reminds us that God’s love is both unfailing and unending. We hope that you will join us on Wednesday mornings as we begin a series entitled “No Greater Love.” Our women's study is a perfect way to get connected with other women in the church family and to grow in your walk with the Lord. A children's program is available for infants through preschool.

Special Events

Men

Men's Winter Groups
Starting January 5 at 6:35pm

Our Men's Study will be continuing our study on "The Lies Men Believe and the Truths that Will Set Them Free".  Our Men's study is designed to give men the opportunity to build relationships with other men in a local church. Our studies combine practical teaching with small group discussion time where men can wrestle with making applications to life and encourage one another as we encounter daily challenges.   All men are invited to join us in the Fellowship Center on Wednesdays.
