Several ministries run through the week. Life Groups meet on Tuesday evening at the church, on Wednesday evening in a home, and on Thursday evening, with the Thursday location and schedule to be confirmed with the church. Children ages 2 to 11 have Sunday school, and a Friday children's program follows the song service. A Sunday bus ministry serves children in the area near the church, and a parent or guardian must complete a permission slip. Teens ages 12 to 18 meet on Wednesday evenings for food, Bible study, and games, and have a Friday class downstairs while adults worship upstairs. A group called Hyphen serves unmarried adults ages 18 to 30. Personal Bible studies can be arranged through the church. Ushers and greeters can direct visitors to classrooms or the nursery.
