Growth & Fellowship Ministry

The Growth & Fellowship Ministries sponsors and promotes a wide variety of activities to involve as many people as possible in Christian fellowship. We try to choose venues that appeal to different interests and different age groups so there is some program for everyone. We attempt to provide these social activities so members and potential members can make new friends and assimilate into the life of the Church.

In the past we sponsored trips to downtown Chicago to see the stage shows “Jersey Boys”, “Wicked”, “The Lion King”, and “Billy Elliot”. We sponsored miniature golf at an outdoor facility and an indoor “glow in the dark” venue. We have taken train and auto trips, celebrated the church's anniversary with a balloon launch, had special “Cookie” Sundays with fresh homemade cookies for coffee hour and honored certain volunteers at Valentine's Day.

We aid the Church in various ways: Helping the after-church coffee hour, providing name tags, making "visitor thank you" gifts and sponsoring pot-luck dinners.
