Wednesdays at the Swamp
Wednesday is mid-week, when the challenges of the work place, the school, the chores at home, the demands on our busy schedule are piling up. We, as Christians, tend to start feeling the pressures of our secular culture and its ungodly influence. Wednesday is a good "battery-charging" day for gathering with like-minded folks who can encourage each other to continue to "look up" and keep our eyes on God.
Our Schedule
5:15 p.m. Family Dinner
For a look at "what's for dinner" go here.
6:15 p.m. Preschoolers & Children's TeamKIDs program
Our Preschoolers are excited over the new program that the children have been using, "TeamKIDs". They love the fun stories and Bible-based teachings. The teachers use their creativity each week to challenge our little ones (3-5 years old) to learn about God and His love for us. Our grade-school children enjoy Bible learning and skill development, Bible-related games and activities; crafts and visits to the local nursing home to share songs and gifts. The enthusiasm of this class is infectious!
6:15 p.m. Adult & Youth Discipleship
Our Youth meet in the chapel to study the Bible and share in praise and worship. If you are between the ages of 12 and 18, come join us. We start our service with our own praise and worship band. Visit our youth page and see what our youth are learning and where they are working.
Our adults welcome you to several different classes. The men are developing stronger and deeper relationships in the men's Bible study. We have an open class for all in the Sanctuary each week.
Ladies begin a Fall Bible study this month. "SEED," is a resource by Pricilla Shirer in a 6-part series of short videos that includes thought provoking, modern-day parables weekly. Each member book provides 3 weeks of study and corresponds with the videos. Homework is in a weekly format, (not daily).
There is an open Bible study class provided in our sanctuary for all adults not in a small group study. This class is led by our pastor.
7:45 p.m. Adult Choir Practice
Our adults meet each week in the sanctuary to learn and practice praise and worship music for Sunday mornings as well as special musical presentations. If you want to sing a song to the Lord, come and join us on Wednesday nights!
What do we do on Wednesdays?
Focusing on God's holy Word is central. Keeping God in the middle of our lives, at the center of our families and in the forefront of our thoughts, is paramount to living this Christian life. Persons of all ages are invited to join a Bible study class - from preschoolers up to Seniors.
What else is there?
There is visitation for those who are interested in visiting our shut-ins, new visitors, and those new to our community. Every quarter, we meet as a body of believers and discuss church business. Our church business meetings are open to the public.
