Sunday Mornings
Adult Fellowships:
Adult Fellowships allow you to develop relationships with people in your neighborhoods, areas of town, or seasons of life. Most fellowships study the same material on the same schedule, although there may be variance appropriate to the group.
On March 25th, we begin a 10-week study of the book of Daniel. Join your neighborhood class as they look at one of the most intriguing books in the Bible. Daniel is filled with timeless truths that are just as relevant to us and they were to those who first heard them. Over and over we will see that God is in control of heaven and earth, directing the forces of nature, the destiny of nations, and the very care of His people.
