Adults
As disciples of Christ, seeking to grow and mature in our faith is vital. Throughout the year we offer various Bible studies (both short and long term), as well as studies on topics that are important to our community. These discussions are conducted in small groups at the church, in home groups, or online.
New fellowship opportunities are added all the time. Please check our News & Events page to stay up-to-date on our programs. We also invite you to learn more about our ministries and groups.
