Life Together

Few things are as contagious as a community of believers that put love into action. The Life Together Adult Bible Fellowship is alive and growing because we need each other, instead of self-sufficiency or a "doing life alone" attitude.

We encourage the cultivation of deep relationships by being a biblically functioning community of Christ-followers; united in vision, purpose, and values. We have a firm commitment to assimilation as each Life Together teammate seeks to encourage and serve one another, and others that join with us. Our heart's desire is to have every member participating in ministry through the Life Together way and be absorbed in God's family.

This Adult Ministry has several life-changing components, The first: Adult Bible Study which unpacks a wide variety of contemporary issues, Bible themes, spiritual growth, and family living, team ministries, small groups, and activities. Our meeting time is 9:00 AM in Room 1125; refreshments and fellowship are big. A Median Adult Ministry.

Team Ministries. An organized way for Life Together teammates to serve Jesus Christ and others. It includes: Encouragement, Activities, Hospitality, Compassion, Prayer, Missions, and Small Groups that are actively ministering to the family of God.

Small Group Ministries. Four reasons why Small Groups are vital to our ministry: It leads to informal interaction (open and non-threatening); there is concentrated learning and increased growth in people’s lives; it is a place to slow down and experience community with others (belongingness) and relating to fellow members. You can join one today.

Activities and Events. We are serious about having fun. It may be the quickest avenue for fellowship to occur and relationships to be built. "HAVE A PARTY". Join us for our next activity and remember—love is spelled T-I-M-E. We have a number of people who can teach well. We affirm them. We need more people who can party for God (Luke 5:29-30) by planning on inviting friends to do Life Together.

Al and Alice Workman have ministered here for 26 years and have been in full-time ministry for 35 years. Al has a diverse ministry background. Our prayer is that you will join the Life Together team for an exciting, challenging, rewarding life of ministry.
