Our pastors and some of our church members have helped put together this easy to read booklet that follows our sermon series “Spiritual Reboot”. We hope you find this devotional as a way to reflect and grow in your relationship with God this Lenten season.

Join a Connect Group today!
Grow, pray, serve and build relationships
Connect Groups are people who come together to build relationships through encouragement, accountability, guidance, and prayer. Every Connect Group consists of 5 essential ingredients: fellowship, worship and prayer, study, accountability, and mission or outreach.
Groups are made up of women, men, couples, singles or mixed groups. The groups usually meet once a week or twice a month to study the scriptures, engage in Christian conversation and fellowship, pray with and for one another, and serve in ministry/mission.
Weekday Study Classes
Grow deeper in faith and community.
Groups for learning meet throughout the week. These groups combine fellowship, study, and sharing in a comfortable friendly atmosphere. For more information and classes available please contact Dave Weaver.

Adult Classes
Join us for in depth conversations about how we maneuver the everyday and find our faith, even in the most difficult issues. This class offers honest and open communication and a space for people to explore their faith free of judgement. This winter we delve into White Fragility: Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo and understand how racism is a construct not restricted to “bad people.” We will delve into defensive moves that we implement when challenged racially. We will discuss racism, how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, what the Bible has to say about racism, and what we can do to actively engage in creating change. Come join us for this study! Contact Amy Burgess at terminallyhappy@hotmail.com or 256-3389.
Sundays at 9:30am
Currently meeting via Zoom each week. Contact Mike at mikehickerson@gmail.com for weekly topic and zoom link.
The New Ventures Sunday School class meets each week at 11 a.m. to discuss questions raised by a searching faith. On January 3rdwe will begin a discussion of the book, “Holy Envy” by Barbara Brown Taylor. Discussions always seek to encourage participants to share differing views that cause us to wrestle with biblical principles, traditional church teaching and contemporary applications of dynamic Christian faith. Currently the class is meeting via Zoom and is open to any who would like to participate. Started by a group of “baby boomers” to address their questions of Christian faith and life in the 21st century, all are welcome to join the lively conversations that are part of each Sunday morning. Contact Joyce Bates joycebates@cinci.rr.com or Michael Vilardo mpvilardo@gmail.com for information.
