Sunday’s: Sunday School Sunday mornings from 10-11 AM This year we are using the Book of Acts as the backbone in our lessons. We’ll cover many moments in the life of the New Testament Church, its miraculous inception at Pentecost, and its spread throughout the world. Not only will students learn the history of the New Testament church, they will also learn their roles as members of the modern day Church. As they journey throughout the year, they will be challenged to learn with their heads, their hearts, and their hands.
The Shade—Youth Worship Service Sunday Evenings from 5:30-7:00 PM Every Sunday evening the youth take over and have their own youth worship service where they explore Christ through movie themes and other creative ways and apply them to their lives and issues today. Youth are encouraged to participate in leading worship with music, drama, dance, and break-away discussion groups after a short message is shared. Games are also played and snacks served.
The Next Step—Youth Mission Ministry Once a month from 4:30-7:00 PM At the end of every month, we take our youth worship service and we hit the streets with mission projects ranging from visiting with the elderly to home improvement projects in our community.
