Ministries

Adult Education Ministry
The goals of our Adult Education Ministry are two-fold. First, we seek to assist Christians in becoming like Jesus in their lifestyle, thinking, and service. Second, we want to honor God through teaching His Word, and to provide opportunities for that Word to be heard and accepted by as many people as possible.

Our Christ-centered curriculum, based on Scripture and the sharing of our collective experience, is designed to be challenging, informative, and interesting. Our classes range from a conversational class about a book, to Scripture classes, to practical classes on parenting and finances. With an outstanding staff of teachers, co-teachers, and assistants, we believe you will find a warm, friendly atmosphere in which you can grow spiritually and intellectually into the character of Jesus Christ.

Children's Ministry
The mission of our children’s ministry is to supplement the family’s attempt to provide spiritual foundations for our children. In God’s timing, these efforts will prayerfully lead a child to know, love and serve Jesus Christ.

Our children’s ministry is grounded in several values: (1) Our ministry is Word-centered, meaning that the Bible is taught and experienced in every setting where children encounter our ministry. (2) Our ministry is child-centered, meaning that our classes and experiences consider the developmental stages of children and what makes them tick. (3) Our ministry is relationship-centered, meaning that we believe that children develop their faith in relationship to parents, teachers, and the larger church body. (4) Our ministry is creative because we believe that the Holy Spirit gifts us as teachers to think outside the box and reach our children with creative tools and applications.

Our children’s ministry is always growing and changing, but there are a few experiences that serve as the core opportunities for your child at our church:

1. Bible Classes – Bible classes are offered for children by age groupings at 9:15 a.m. on Sunday morning, and some class or offering is made available on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m.

2. Children’s Worship – Children are invited to their own worship service where they are taught to sing, pray and worship during the regular adult worship on Sunday mornings at 10:30 a.m.

3. Child Care – We attempt to provide child care in some form for all church events.

4. Kids’ Nite Out – We offer the parents of our community a night to spend with each other while we keep the children.

5. Vacation Bible School and special summer day classes provide children with maximized exposure to the creative and lively teaching of God’s Word.

For more information on our children’s ministry or how you can be involved, please e-mail our Children’s Minister, Lianne Rodriguez or call the office during her working hours on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays 9:00 am - 1:00 pm, (805) 482-3505.

Small Group Ministry
Small groups are the front lines of our experience of community in our congregation.  Small groups serve as places of fellowship and growth in relationships, and they are a great way to deepen your friendships and your spiritual life while you worship and serve to glorify The LORD with us.  Our small groups meet in various locations and for various studies.  Please see Ralph or Kristie Rascon, or call 482-3505, if you would like more information about joining a group.
