We believe that church is so much more than what we do on Sunday morning. We believe that it is very much about doing life together. Our life groups exist to build community within our church, to ask tough questions and seek answers together, and finally to love and support one another. We are in the process of developing this portion of the website and will be launching new life groups soon. So check back here for other exciting life groups being offered in the near future. If you are interested in participating in a life group, please use the contact form on our website to connect with us and a member of our staff will contact you shortly.

New Kind of Christian (Café)
Teacher: Dr. Ned Buckner
This is an eclectic class that meets and discusses topics that most churches dare not touch. The class is as real and authentic as it gets as they strive and struggle together to understand what it means to live out God’s love in this world. The class is led by our former pastor Dr. Ned Buckner. Dr. Buckner not only brings a theological and biblical depth to the class, but also a relational focus from his experience as a licensed marriage and family therapist.

HANDY MINISTRY
Our Baptist Men / Handy Man Ministry goals are to serve God through service to our community and our church members. We look for opportunities to help senior citizens, people with disabilities, and others who may have a special need. We have monthly breakfasts for fun and fellowship. We pray for the needs of our church members and for others in the community, then select a project and put our “handy man” talents and skills to work. We welcome all the hands we can get.
SENIOR ADULT FELLOWSHIP CLUB
The Fellowship Club was formed about 30 years ago, after Ned Buckner saw a need for Senior Adults to fellowship on a regular basis. He asked Kate Grice to lead this group. And, she has ever since. The Fellowship Club meets once a month. Kate publishes an annual Calendar of Events. In the past, the group has gone to the mountains or the beach. She schedules lunch at local restaurants and an annual cookout. Kate makes every event fun, by creating games and giving prizes. Holidays are always fun. The Fellowship Club is a great way to get to know each other and make lifelong friends. They encourage each other, help each other, and just have a great time together. COME JOIN THE FUN!!!
