Discipleship (Christian Education Ministry)
This ministry intends to take the Commission Jesus gave to His Church seriously: "Go and make disciples..." - not members, or even believers - but disciples! And the means He also gave us by "baptizing them, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded..." The exciting and dynamic ministry of making disciples and enabling spiritual growth is the focus of the Education Ministry. The challenge and satisfaction of getting people of God into the Word of God in as many creative ways as possible is the joy of sharing in this vital ministry.

Music Ministry
"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord..." Through our music ministry we do just that; praising, worshiping and connecting with Him through sound and word. God is our audience!
