YOUTH GROUP - Thank you to those who support our youth group as well as those who participate in events. The Youth have lots of fun winter activities including a trip up north for WinterBlast; chat with a young person to learn more! Winterblast is only a few weeks away (1/23-1/25) and the youth are looking ahead to the Higher Things Conference this June.
​
SUNDAY SCHOOL - Lessons are offered every Sunday and match with our lectionary so families can dig deeper into the readings and grow in their faith together! All ages are welcome - no one is too young or old to join in our weekly Sunday School lessons and fun activities are offered for all ages. *if you'd like to have the weekly lessons emailed directly to your home, please contact the church office. These are great materials to aid in family devotion time.

CATECHISM - Pastor leads a weekly zoom Catechism for adults as well as a weekly in-person class for youth every Wednesday beginning at 5:00pm.
​
WEEKLY MEAL AND SOCIAL GATHERING - Wednesday evenings beginning at 4:45 we offer an opportunity for anyone and everyone to gather in our gathering space to enjoy food and fellowship. Bring your own food, bring a dish to pass, or just come...play some board games, enjoy a game of chess, or just stop in for a cup of coffee and a chat. Many people who live alone find this a welcome opportunity to get out of the house and get a nice warm meal and a smile!
​
BIBLE STUDIES - We offer a variety of weekly studies that appeal to all. Whether you are looking at learning more about the Catechism, more about Revelation, finding Pease and Stillness during trials and difficult times in your life, we have something for you! Please ask Pastor for more details or grab a copy of the monthly newsletter to learn more!
​
FAMILY FUN - At least once a month (we usually offer something weekly) the members of our congregation and their neighbors and friends gather to do something fun. Weather permitting we have fires, play outdoor games, play bingo or trivia, or gather to learn more about one another and share the good news about Christ crucified!
​
MAKING A JOYFUL NOISE - We have a youth choir as well as a Chapel choir and plenty of opportunities to use our musical talents to Glorify the Lord; talk to Pastor or our Music Director for more details! **Youth and Chapel choirs often sing together and are available for weddings, funerals, and other special occasions.
​
MONTHLY LADIES COFFEE - Check out the calendar or newsletter for details, or call the church office: 920-793-1716 but all ladies - of all ages - are invited to join together monthly for coffee/brunch beginning at 10:00am. This is a wonderful opportunity to make new friends and strengthen bonds with fellow Christian women.
