God has called us in Acts to go out and make disciples. Our purpose and desire here is to train Christian leaders that are able to go out and share the good news of Jesus Christ with all those that they come into contact with. From Middle School through College, we have 10 years to invest in students’ lives to help them understand what it means to be a disciple of the Living God.

They are the greeters with big smiles and hearty handshakes out in our courtyard every Sunday morning. They also host “Coffee in the Courtyard,” New Members Classes, Volunteer Opportunities, and Emmaus weekend retreats. The Fellowship committee also compiles and prints our Advent and Lenten devotionals every year.
