“Growing” - This is describing our local disciple-making which stems from the Great Commission.  And we understand an important part in making disciples  is rubbing shoulders with the community through acts of loving service and praying that God will open up opportunities for evangelism with the gospel.  Of course, any act of generosity or service is motivated by the grace and mercy shown to us through Christ and our service is simply the overflow of God's love that has been poured out into our hearts.  Below you will find various ways any church congregant, family, or even a Life Group can be involved in our community in this way...

Vacation Bible School

Vacation Bible School is a local outreach opportunity held every summer to lead children to live a life with a single-minded allegiance to Jesus Christ and His Word. During each action packed Vacation Bible School, the children learn life changing truth from God’s Word, memorize the verses of the Word of God, and participate in activities.


Good News Clubs

The Good News Clubs meet at Fred Douglass Elementary School and CentralElementary School after school ends for the kids.  The Good News Club is a ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship in which trained teachers meet with groups of children at the school. Each week the teacher presents an exciting Bible lesson using colorful materials from CEF Press. This action-packed time also includes songs, Scripture memory, a missions story and review games or other activities focused on the lesson's theme.  “As with all CEF ministries, the purpose of Good News Club is to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and establish (disciple) them in the Word of God and in a local church for Christian living.”
