Adult Ministry

Just like a physical mountain climb, your spiritual journey requires equipment, training, strength, endurance, passion and guides to help you find your way. That's why we recommend spiritual exploration in community groups, where you and others like you can get the training and equipment you need and you can benefit from the guidance of more experienced spiritual adventurers. On Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings, we have great opportunities for your to become part of a community group or bible study class. Why not check us out? Come grow with us!

Wednesday Nights (all classes are from 6:30pm to 8:00pm at the church)
