Sunday School
study and grow
During the Summer months, there will not be Sunday School classes.
Normally, a selection of Sunday School classes are offered every Sunday from 9 to 10 am. You can join at anytime! Check out the classes offered and more information can be found in our ministry catalog. Nursery will be available during the Sunday School time for babies to 4 years old.
Growth Groups
connect to the community in a smaller group that you can relate to
Growth Groups provide opportunities to gather regularly, build community within small groups and discuss issues of life and faith. One of our primary goals is to get folks involved in groups outside of Sunday morning that lend more to in-depth study and fellowship. As we see it, Sunday morning is one small part of an overall “meal” that a committed, growing Christ-follower needs for life and service. There is not enough time on Sunday morning to do all that we need in fellowship and study together. Please consider connecting with our body in some of these other opportunities
Check our our 2025 Fall Ministry Catalog to find out what is happening right now and don’t forget to sign up for a growth group!

AWANA: An awesome group for students on Wednesday nights. Students can help lead and facilitate
Trek challenges Middle School students with the 3 most important questions they’re asking in Middle School: Who am I? Why am I here? Who’s with me? By allowing students to dive deep into the Scriptures and answer these questions for themselves, we allow them to own their faith and discover what they believe.
24/7 establishes high school students as lifelong disciples through a deep study of God’s Word, mobilizing them to live with godly perspective and evident faith.
