The call of every church is to be God-centered and God-focused. Here are some ways that we answer that call.

Children's Worship

10:45 am

Berto Lopez, Leader

Our children meet with the adults for the first part of morning worship. They are then dismissed to Children's Church. Great things are happening in Children's Church.

Missions Focus

The first Sunday of each month will be a focus on Missions with Rami and Kayla Rihani as leaders.  We will learn about how missionaries are "going and making disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19) and how we can do the same-whether the mission field be in Lombard or across the ocean.  The kids received a "passport to missions" book this past Sunday. Each month we will visit a different country and will learn about the country, it's people, and a Nazarene missionary family serving in that country.  At the end of each session each child will get a passport stamp for their passport to missions book.  The stamp will have the country's flag and the names of the missionaries that we learned about. All kids are welcome to join the journey!

SUNDAY EVENING ---

5:45 pm -

6:00 pm - Sunday Evening Worship

SUNDAY SCHOOL----

Sunday School is offered for all ages and is a time for our church family to gather together for teaching, fellowship and sharing God's word

ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES

9:30 am

Adult Sunday School classes and topics of study for Fall 2009 are as follows:

 

College/Singles/Young Married - Jerry and Kathy Bimber, Teachers

This class, which is designed for our younger adults, will embarkon a study entitled Holiness for the Real World.  With a little instruction, and much discussion, we will challenge each other as we strive together to live a holy life.

Parents/Career Builders - Barry Atkins, Teacher       

This class is designed for parents and those immersed in the busy life of career and other responsibilities. For the Fall of 2009, we will be doing a study entitled PrayerLife:  Learning to Pray in a Distracting World.  This 11 week seminar is not for victorious Christians, but Christians defeated in the trenches, asking… How do I focus when I’m distracted with so much to do? How do I pray longer than five minutes? How do I ask when I’ve tried it before and it doesn’t work? Delving into our frustrations, Paul Miller studies Jesus’ powerful, yet simple teachings on prayer. Weaving thiswith his own stories, he invites us to become childlike. To once again be ourselves: to ask, dream, and even, feast with our Father

Empty Nesters/Middle Agers - Rich Hill, Teacher

The class discussion will center on the book What Bothers Me the Most About Christianity.  In this honest approach to matters of faith, we will seek to clarify those important elements that are crucial to a living and dynamic Christian life.   A few sacred cows might be skewered in the process.

A Study of Jesus through the Gospels - Norm Kruithof, Teacher

This class is an inductive Bible study format.  During the year, all four Gospels will be read in their entirety, and they will be harmonized so that the clearest picture of Jesus will emerge.  If you would like a thorough approach, this class is designed for you.

Faith Connections - Millie Cermak, Teacher

This class will use the Nazarene Sunday School Curriculum.  After a brief emphasis on Better Bible Reading, most of the quarter will be spent studying the book of Hebrews, entitled A Better Way.  Along with the study, in this class there is a consistent practice of care and concern for others.

 

Adults, with brand new classes beginning September 20, 2009, if you've been looking for a time to start attending Sunday School, now is a great time to jump in!

The Men meet on Wednesday nights for prayer, fellowship and inductive Bible Study.  We work through the Bible, one section or chapter at a time.  The pace is unhurried and we have time to ask deep questions that the text provokes.  Our current study is in the Book of Genesis.

Women's Bible Study - 7:00 pm

The Ladies Bible study meets on Wednesday nights at 7:00 PM, following the evening meal. During our time together we participate in a Bible Study followed by a time of prayer, sharing concerns in our lives, the church and the world. The Bible Studies are chosen from books or DVD based series. We generally do a couple of Beth Moore DVD based series a year. The women are multi-generational -- from college age to grandmothers. Please feel free to join us on a regular basis or now and then as your schedule permits!

 

Come join us every Wednesday night at 7:00 pm and grow in the knowledge of God's Word.
