The Young Adult (18-30 year olds) program, called the Branches Group, will be holding to the standard youth and children’s vision that I have instituted in all of my ministry areas. For those of you who missed it, the mission statement for these is to Seek God, Share Life, and Give Back.
Seeking God is paramount to a Christian’s initial salvation and maturity, and will be seen in the Branches Bible studies and worship sessions on Sunday afternoons.
Sharing Life helps us to grow together and support one another and will be seen in the fellowship and fun of the group. This element of the Branches Program.
Giving Back is our natural response to what God has given us, and Branches will be given the opportunity to serve others in ministries here at the church and also off-site. We hope to have big opportunities once a month, but smaller, less tangible opportunities for ministry already exist in the program as the we help make it happen.
As the we move from seeking God to sharing life to finally giving back, we will see our growth in Christ actually taking place before our eyes! The mission statement is our process, so it’s easy to explain to anyone that asks, “so what is your program all about?” Well, we seek God, share life together, and give back to the Kingdom! We seek God in study and worship, share life in fun times together, and give back in ministry as a natural response to what God has done for us!
The Branches Group meets every Wednesday at 8:30 pm. Join us as we eat, look at God's Word, Worship and Serve.
