OUR LOCAL MEETINGS
Small Groups
Midweek
06:30 PM
Our Small Groups meet midweek to foster in-person fellowship, encouragement, and prayer while drawing guidance from the Bible to stay faithful to Jesus. They provide a meaningful space to grow spiritually, strengthen relationships, and support one another in our walk with God. Through interactive discussions and shared experiences, participants deepen their understanding of Scripture and apply its teachings to daily life. These gatherings create a close-knit community where faith is nurtured, and challenges are met with prayer and encouragement. Contact us HERE for more details
Our Sabbath School is open to individuals of all ages and is divided into classes that explore the Bible through interactive discussions. It provides a wonderful opportunity to engage with Jesus' teachings and understand their relevance to daily life. Through meaningful conversations and shared insights, participants deepen their faith and grow spiritually. Following Sabbath School, we transition into a time for ministry highlights, and general announcements. After that, we enter into our worship service, where we continue to seek God's presence.
Our Worship Meeting begins with a warm welcome, announcements, and uplifting congregational singing, followed by a prayer inviting the Holy Spirit’s presence. After an opening hymn, the children enjoy a special story, leading into the collection of tithes and offerings as an act of gratitude and commitment. We then enter a time of congregational prayer, lifting our hearts in praise and petition. A special song prepares us for the sermon, which typically lasts around 30 minutes. The service concludes with a final hymn, sending us forth encouraged in our walk with Christ.
