The Evangelism Class is taught by the pastor. The purpose of the class is to teach us how to effectively share the word of God. The class begins each year on the second Wednesday of September and is scheduled to run for thirty-six weeks. This class is held in the sanctuary because of its size. Everyone who takes the class is encouraged to repeat it at least two more times to be sure that they have not missed any information. Bible Study is also taught by the pastor and is held on Tuesday night. Members are encouraged to do research and study ahead of time, so that they can actively participate. There are study questions handed out at the beginning of Advent and Lent. New questions will be added each year and some will be dropped to enable older members to have new work to study, and allow the new members to catch up on the old information. The Couples Ministries is not a social club. The Couples ministry is a study on how to have a godly relationship with their spouse. It meets on the forth Thursday of every month and The New Members Class is conducted by the Pastor and it meets on the third Monday of each Month and runs for four weeks. Each class gets a tour of the church and the chance to meet the administrative staff and official board. Each Ministry president comes and tells about their particular ministry and to encourage the new member to become a part of some ministry. New Members are also are instructed on personal stewardship, the church covenant, and the church doctrines. The Youth
Department is also very active. Youth members attend classes twice a
month. They have outings such as bowling, skating, lock-ins and pizza
parties. These outings teach our youth Christians how to have fellowship with
one another... Read More The Hospitality Ministry also spearheaded our first Thanksgiving Day meal where we served over 200 people.
