DivorceCare helps those suffering from the pain of divorce heal completely, learn from it and grow closer to God. It equips people from going down the same path again. We offer two (Spring and Fall) 13 week sessions.

DATES: Sep 3 - Dec 3, 2025 | 6:30 - 8pm | Rm Library | $10
DivorceCare is a safe place where caring people come alongside you as you find healing from the pain of separation or divorce. At this 13-week, video-based support group program, you’ll find helpful counsel to manage the emotional turmoil and practical tools for decision-making. Each week, you’ll watch a 30-minute video filled with practical suggestions from counselors and other experts on divorce recovery and will cover topics such as dealing with anger, depression, loneliness, finances, kid care, single sexuality, forgiveness and more. Plus you’ll hear from people who’ve experienced a marriage breakup and who share what’s helped them. Their insights will help you make wise decisions as you move forward.  For more information or to sign up, contact the facilitators.

Ignite Youth Ministries stands to encourage and equip the next generation of Christ followers to love, know, and obey Jesus; as well as live in a way that reflects Christ to everyone they come into contact with. Our hope is that students will explore their faith, deepen their relationship with God, and learn how to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
We meet weekly on Wednesday nights, where students can expect to experience fellowship, games, a time of worship, and a message followed by small group time. These small groups allow students to engage in discussion that goes along with the message, as well as being encouraged and challenged by students in similar grade levels.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY: Adult volunteers and small group leaders, interested contact Jamison Thornton

We are convinced by God’s word that relationships are a big deal because people are a big deal to God! Marriage & parenting are blessings and take work; just like our car needs maintenance, our relationships can use tune ups and focused attention.  Whether you are newly married or a seasoned couple, we are here for you! 

How do we help? Our marriage/parenting coaches are trained to walk alongside you, share their ups and downs, as well as encouragement and tools; to help you strengthen and enrich your marriage and family relationship with Jesus at the center. We provide a safe, non-judgemental space to strengthen your faith, spend time together, and build a community.

Men’s Ministry exists to equip, edify, exhort, and encourage men so that they
are built up in their knowledge of Scripture, strengthened in their relationship with Jesus, challenged to be mighty men of God, reminded to be empowered by the Holy Spirit (not the ways of the world), and motivated to increase their interaction with each other. We do this through twice-monthly men’s ministry breakfasts at the church (1st and 3rd Saturday of each month, from 7 - 8:30am which include men-sized breakfasts, a time of worship, a short devotional, and a time of focused prayer), planned recreational events, retreats, men-in-five (a time for men to gather at the closing of each service), and increasing levels of personal fellowship and discipleship.
 
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY: Announced at the twice monthly breakfasts
