The Alpha Course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith for themselves. It's relaxed, low key, friendly, and engaging. Bring a friend and join us at the Dog Eared Cafe over coffee and snacks as we discuss some of the important topics of life and faith.

Starting the journey of following Jesus is an exciting step in your life. But now that you have made the decision to put your faith in Jesus, what does it practically look like to follow Jesus each day? Roots is specifically designed to help new believers in Jesus grow deeper roots of faith that will help you get started in this journey of being a disciple of Jesus.

Grief Share is a support group to help you move through the grief process. Join others in a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Through this 13-week group, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way.

Join us for a 4-week Young Adult equip class. When you think of "heaven coming to earth", does it sound abstract and unreachable? What if we started with what is right in front of us? When you think of the ordinary people and everyday environments around you, what is a simple, humble way to carry someone's burden? The practice of service is partly about recognizing that even the simplest acts - in the words of Jesus, giving "even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones" - are a sign of heaven on earth. We are diving into another Practicing the Way Course created by John Mark Comer on Service. In this Equip class, you will be given practical ways to learn how to cultivate a spiritual discipline of serving others.
