Wednesday Afternoon Program

                              Joyce 

The FaithWeaver Friends™ Program is every Wednesday throughout the school year from 2:30 – 4:30 pm for children from kindergarten to 5th grade. The children hear Bible stories in wild and wacky ways, have fun snacks, surprises, games and crafts. The program encourages children’s faith to grow with a strong emphasis on serving others.

The actual program begins at 2:30 pm. Since some children ride buses to the church, there is an adult in the worship center that supervises the children who come as early as 12:30 pm. These children do their homework, play games, play with toys, and go outside until 2:30 pm.

Bible Studies/Small Groups

A study using the book, Finding the Heart's True Home by Richard J. Foster, meets 9:45 - 10:45 am on Sunday mornings during the Learning and Living Center. Participants are learning about different styles of prayer and how each form can move them inward into personal transformation, upward toward intimacy with God, and outward to minister to others.

Contemporary Bible Study, using the Nooma Series, featuring Rob Bell, meets 9:45 - 10:45 am on Sunday mornings during the Learning and Living Center. This study uses a DVD and discussion questions format to start dialogue about our spiritual directions.
