ENCOURAGING & EQUIPPING FAMILIES
TO MAKE JESUS THEIR ALL
AND SHARE HIM WITH ALL

DISCIPLESHIP FOR MOM & DAD

Sunday Mornings

GroupLife connects couples and parents who learn to follow, love each other, and live on mission as disciples of Jesus. Families classes are grouped by family life-stages such as married without kids; single parents; parents of preschoolers, kids, and youth; and groups preferring multi-generational connections.

Journey Groups

Moms and Dads are encouraged to pursue an essential, intimate, and abiding relationship with Jesus. Journey Groups are small, same-gender groups that walk together through a 9-month process called “The Journey,” laying an essential foundation for a lifetime of following Jesus and multiplying kingdom impact.

CARE FOR FAMILIES

COUNSELING SERVICES

God expects us to need help. He has not called us to live in isolation without helpers. That’s why He’s provided many helpers for His children in the church and faith community. You and your family matter to God. Our church encourages and fully supports you seeking the help you need. 

THE INTAKE PROCESS:  Laura Bauer, LCSW is a local counselor by vocation and serves as our church’s Living Well Ministries Associate. Her role is to direct our Re:generation recovery ministry as well as provide counseling intake services. When you inquire about counseling, she meets with you first to understand the nature of your need, then connects you with counselors and services in our church and/or community that can best meet your need.
 
 

*If you or someone you know is in (or has put others in) imminent danger, please call 911.
