Adult Ministries

Supper Clubs: Are made up of 8-10 people who meet monthly to dine and share in fellowship together.

Education: Sunday morning children’s education programs are offered during the 11:00 service. About 10-15 minutes into the Worship service, children of any age are invited forward to participate with the Children’s Message, then following this, 3-year-olds through 6th graders will be invited to meet their teachers in the Gathering Space to transition to their classrooms.

Dewdrops (3 years* – Kindergarten)

Children are introduced to the Bible, by being read to from a “storybook Bible” format, following the 3-year lectionary cycle. *3-year-olds attending Dewdrops must be toilet-trained, as there are not appropriate facilities to address diapering needs in this classroom.

Rainbows (Grades 1-3)  

Children deepen their understanding of Biblical persons and content by repeating the 3-year lectionary, this time reading a “storybook Bible” for themselves, and occasionally a “children’s translation” Bible with teacher guidance.

U2 (Grades 4-6)  

Children begin to explore a more mature understanding of the 3-year lectionary content, by regularly engaging with a standard Bible (simplified translation), and with additional historical and social context.

Thursday Night Music and the Master (M&Ms): M&Ms is a time for children and their families to grow in God’s love, emphasizing MUSIC as an act of service and of praise! Each Thursday from 5 -7pm, we offer activities for young people from birth through high-school. Dinner is included, making it convenient for your whole family to participate in meaningful faith and fellowship!
