Our lives as Christians are lives of discipleship. Being a disciple involves more than an hour a week on Sundays -- instead, it involves a whole life of following Jesus. Because Jesus is our crucified and risen Lord, He is a living Lord and His presence is one to be enjoyed and experienced as we grow closer to Him through His word and His Spirit. Dinner and Discipleship is a bimonthly gathering for the young adults of Christ Church to share a meal and to learn more about living with Jesus every day of our lives. If you are in your 20's or 30's, and are eager to explore your discipleship with Jesus, this is the place for you!

In addition to our regular weekly Sunday School classes before worship each Sunday, Pastor Alex teaches two 10-week bible studies each year on zoom, in the fall and in the spring respectively. In these 10-week terms, there is the opportunity for in depth study of whole books of the bible and plenty of time for discussion. This fall, on Thursday evenings at 7:30pm, beginning October 2nd we are studying St. Paul's letter to the Ephesians.

In this intimate service on the 3rd Wednesday of each month, we take time to intentionally slow down and abide in the presence of Christ through prayer. In this special evening prayer service, we highlight stillness in prayer, music, and mediation on Holy Scripture. In addition, we are excited to also offer a zoom option for those who are unable to join us in person at church. Join us on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:30pm for this special time to join our minds and hearts together with God through the gift of prayer!

ESL (English as a Second Language) classes are a great way to learn English in a welcoming and friendly environment.

Each month, the women of Christ Church gather together for food, fellowship, Bible study, prayer, and service projects. We are strengthened by a welcoming community of women of all ages as we share our own life journeys – including its, joys, struggles, and evidence of how God is leading us to greater trust and service in Him. Come and be encouraged. Learn a new craft. Find nourishment and renewal. Enjoy coffee and conversation. Be inspired by the lives of women in the Bible as we explore what it means to love God with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind, and all our strength.

At Christ Church, we welcome you to share your musical gifts. Whether it's singing in the choir, playing a musical instrument, writing songs, composing music or teaching music to our children and youth, we invite you to make a joyful noise!

Our concern for our neighbors doesn't end at the borders of our neighborhood - it extends to the whole world. God embraces us with His love and calls us to embrace the world with that same engaging love. As a church, we strive to foster global awareness and concern -- to put faith into action. Learning from our sisters and brothers in Christ throughout the world, we seek together to be Christ's hands and feet, sharing the good news. We are partnering in service and ministry with churches, pastors, and missionaries in the Dominican Republic. Our upcoming servant trips will explore ways that we can strengthen our respective communities through support and understanding.
