Bible Study: Hebrews | 9:30am | Room 101/102 | Cathrine Larrea. Join us for a traditional Bible study led by experienced bible teacher Cathrin Larrea studying the book of Hebrews, which reminds us that God is worth our effort. We will begin our exploration of the priestly ministry of Christ in the believer. Bring your bible. No other materials are needed.

MomCo | 9:30am | Room 103/104 | Jenny Murdock & Sarah Mayes. MomCo was founded in 1973 when seven women invited moms to meet regularly to grow together as women, parents, and leaders with the goal of reaching women with the hope of Jesus. If you’re ready to connect with other young mothers, MomCo is the place to be! MomCo will meet every Thursday from January 9 through May 8 except for Spring Break (March 27). See you there!

Believing Jesus: The Book of Acts | 9:30am| Room 108 | Polly Pirlo. Join Lisa Harper for a journey through the Book of Acts. On this journey, we’ll discover how Jesus’ command to spread the gospel changed the lives of those who believed and shaped the culture around the growing church. Part 1 of this study will go from January 16 to February 27. We’ll take a break on March 6, then continue with Part 2 from March 13 to April 10. Please purchase a copy of Believing Jesus: A Journey through the Book of Acts by Lisa Harper for this class.

Drop off your kids at the nursery, and our staff will take it from there! This program will be overseen by our Director of Children's Ministry, Kaitlin Francavilla.

Elementary Enrichment (K-5) | 9:30am | Room 321 | Melissa Ebner. Discover the perfect blend of faith and knowledge with Elementary Enrichment! Ignite young minds with interactive, hands-on science experiments while nurturing their character with valuable life skills. Join us on an exciting journey where faith meets curiosity, helping children grow into confident, kind, and compassionate individuals. Students in grades K-5 are invited to join this wonderful enrichment time. This semester, we will follow the MomCo schedule (see above).

MomCO (formally MOPs)

MomCo (formally MOPs) is a gathering of moms coming together for community, conversation, and friendship. The goal of MomCo is to meet each mom where she is and walk beside her as she embarks upon the crazy and beautiful journey we call motherhood. YOU, mama, will get exactly what you need and will be surrounded by other moms just like you. You cannot be supermom all the time, which is why we are happy to offer FREE childcare!
