SUNDAY MORNING
God's people gather for vital Worship, relationship building and biblical instruction.
Worship Service –
9:00 a.m.
Our Worship Services aim for a balance between celebration (O, come
let us sing to the Lord... Let us shout joyfully to Him... Ps
95:1-2) and reflection (O, come let us worship and bow down , Let
us kneel before the Lord... Ps 95:6). Joy and reverence
find expression in a purposeful blend of contemporary choruses and traditional
hymns. Worshippers and seekers will hear solid life-related expositions of
God's Word. Each message attempts to answer the questions: What does the Bible
mean? So What? Now What? Interacting with other elements of the service such
as Prayer, Bible readings, special music, offering, communion, testimonies,
quiet reflection, etc. will draw you closer to God the Father, Son and Holy
Spirit.
Preschool Children's Church – Just prior
to the message (during the Worship Service) children ages 3-6 are dismissed
to attend Children's Church, where they learn God's Word through
craft projects, songs and Bible stories.
K.O.W. (Kids Own Worship) – Children's
Church for grades 1-4. Faithweavers curriculum will tie into the lesson
taught in Sunday School.
Get Acquainted Time And Refreshments (10:10) – Immediately
follows the service. Coffee, tea and drinks for the kids are served while
we get to know one another better each Sunday.

Truths into every day life for all ages: 0-3 Nursery; Preschool, 1st-5th Grade,

CLUB PAIDIONE is our unique Children's ministry to
School-agers (1st –5th grade). The name is New Testament Greek for Kids
Club, pronounced pie-dee-own.
Club Paidione time consists of:
- The best group games in town in a full size gymnasium.
- High energy worship time complete w/ light effects, drums and electric guitar.
- The only place in the area that teaches the Walk Thru the Bible, which teaches
kids the major people, places and events of the Old and New Testament in chronological
order. Each year we rotate from the Old and New Testament, so after a child
graduates from Club Paidione he or she will have a firm understanding of who
lived when and where and what the faith lessons are regarding that particular
person or event.
- A rewarding Bible memorization plan that lays the foundation for a Biblical
worldview.
- The opportunity to make great friends in a well supervised, positive, child
focused, God honoring environment.
Club Paidione meets on Wednesday nights in the lower level from 6:30-7:45.
This year we have a special celebrity guest joining us for Club Paidione.
Our special guest has been in six blockbuster movies and has traveled from
far, far away to join us.

C.A.R.E. GROUPS
We offer a number of small group ministries throughout the year. One
of them is called CARE Groups.
- CARE Groups are home gatherings of 3-12 people. They meet bi-weekly
to share needs, encourage one another, get to know God better through interactive
Bible studies, and socialize around refreshments.
The letters in C.A.R.E. stand for...
CARING – Scripture envisions spiritual, physical,
and emotional needs being met on a personal "small group" basis.
(Ex 18:13-18)
ASSIMILATION – C.A.R.E. Groups provide a context
to help people identify their gifts and become involved in serving others. (1Peter
4:10-11)
RELATIONSHIPS – C.A.R.E. Groups provide a vehicle
for healthy, supportive relationships that give members of the Body a sense
of belonging. (Acts 2:46-47)
EVANGELISM – C.A.R.E. Groups provide a warm, non-threatening
home environment for honest seekers of Truth to discuss Christianity.
