Faith Formation

We encourage and equip the whole church and individuals for lifelong faith formation in their work, home, school, church, or neighborhood, so that all generations have an intentional and resilient faith.

Children

On Sunday mornings, children are present with the whole group for a portion of the time then are invited to Sunday school for age appropriate lessons and activities. During the week – and in this season of Covid restrictions – we provide resources for families to pray, read Bible stories and learn about the love of Jesus at home.

Youth (middle and high school

Our youth group meets Friday nights combined with Gateway Church youth in the downstairs Youth Room in our Annex building.

City Wide Youth Events happen each month – watch for PA Olympics, human sized board games, Minute to Win It challenges, The Amazing Race PA and many others. These activities will return when provincial health order allow us to gather!

We are building closer ties with Young Life, a terrific, high energy youth ministry that partners with many churches in our city. Learn more about Young Life here.

Adults

Small groups meet for many reasons: for study, prayer, encouragement, service, to share a meal, and enjoy the company of friends.

Please see the weekly Scoop church newsletter for a listing of the different Bible Study groups currently meeting.
