Family
Nurture Your Marriage and Family – With Help
God chose you to lead your family. And we want to walk alongside you.
Because God has described His church as a family (Gal. 6:10, Eph. 2:19), we value and nurture the nuclear human family as the primary unit of discipleship.
- Join us for Family Nights – where we gather families with children in the household to share a meal together, watch a video teaching, and connect with other parents journeying through the same challenges as you. These gatherings are a free programming for the whole family and take place on the first Wednesday of each month.
- Other special events such as: Family Camp, Marriage Date Night, and other whole family events.
Grow Together. Love Fully.
A healthy marriage takes effort.
You may wonder how to strengthen communication, deal with challenges, or simply enjoy quality time as a couple. There is no secret formula; but with experienced, trusted leaders and a supportive, loving community, you can equip yourself with the tools for a lifetime:
- Marriage mentoring for engaged/newlywed couples
- Equip small groups tailored for every parenting stage
