Just as a family gathers around a table, we come together as a church family to connect, learn, and grow. Here, you'll find a space to ask questions, share your thoughts, and gain the tools you need for intentional development in your spiritual journey.
Whether you're new to faith or have been walking with Christ for years, Discipleship Night is your invitation to sit around the table and deepen your relationship with and knowledge of God. Why?
Because all of us are invited to become Disciples of Christ.
The Great Commission says “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations” Matthew 28:19
But you may be thinking:
What does it mean to be a disciple?
How do I become a disciple?
How do I grow as disciple?
"The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master." - Luke 6:40
Join us as we journey together, aiming to be as our Master, Jesus Christ, and seeing His image reflected in our lives.
Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry” John 6:35
Come hungry, leave fulfilled.
