Adult Ministry

Adults

Adult faith formation can happen in many places including worship, Sunday School, conversations over coffee, small groups, service opportunities and more. Our goal is to offer a variety of programs and opportunities to help you grow and mature in your faith.

Seasonal Small Groups

Join us for a 5 week small group during the season of Lent!

These groups will engage with "Everything in Between," a study offered by A Sanctified Art. Using a weekly devotional as a guide, participants will journey through the Gospel of Luke with commentary, poetry, visual art, hymns, and reflection prompts.


This study invites us to navigate life’s polarities with faith, intention, and openness to transformation. Each week explores two seemingly opposing concepts—such as faith & works, rest & growth, or grief & hope. While often perceived as binaries, scripture reveals their nuance and complexity. Rather than opposites, they exist on a spectrum, with God present in the space between.
