What's Happening

AUGUST IS THE "NEW" NEW YEAR

Sunday Mornings, 8:30 a.m., 9:45 a.m., & 11:00 a.m.

Many see the start of a new school year as the beginning of a "new" year. This time of year is also a good time for adults to start a "new" beginning through involvement in a Life Group. Adult Life Groups offer spiritual growth opportunities for adults of all ages and stages of life. These Sunday morning Bible studies present God's Word through discussion and relevant application. Life Groups also provide opportunities to build relationships with other adults who are studying and applying God's truths to their daily lives. The new school year is a perfect time to become involved in one of the many Life Groups available at 8:30, 9:45, and 11:00 a.m. each Sunday morning. Let us help you find the group that is right for you!
