Growing in faith was never meant to happen alone. Family Discipleship is how we create opportunities for every generation to grow in Christ, build meaningful friendships, and encourage one another in their walk with Jesus.

Every Wednesday evening, there’s a place for the whole family. Kids, students, and adults each have opportunities to learn God’s Word, build community, and take their next step of faith.

Parents are the primary influence in a child’s spiritual journey. We count it a privilege to partner with families as they help the next generation Discover Jesus, Develop in their faith, and Deploy to share His hope with others.

Mission Friends (Ages 4-Kinder)

Mission Friends helps preschoolers discover that God’s love is for everyone. Through Bible stories, hands-on activities, games, music, and prayer, children begin learning about God’s love for people around the world and how they can share His love with others.

Prayer is one of the most powerful ways we grow in our relationship with God and join Him in His work. Our Prayer Team is made up of women who faithfully lift up the needs of our church, our community, and our world, trusting God to move in powerful ways.

Team members pray individually throughout the week and gather together on the first and third Wednesdays of each month at 3:30 p.m. to pray over requests shared by members and guests, as well as seek God’s wisdom and direction as we reach our homes, community, and the world with the hope of Jesus.

If God has given you a heart for prayer, we’d love for you to be part of this ministry.

Worship is one of the ways we grow closer to God, and leading others in worship is a meaningful opportunity to strengthen your own faith while encouraging the church. Whether you’ve sung in a choir for years or you’re simply looking for a place to use your voice for God’s glory, you’re invited to join the Worship Choir!

No auditions or special musical training are required—just a willing heart and a desire to worship.
