Group DetailsBaptism Orientation Class - Cornelius
Sunday, January 13 @ 11am in room 221
Taught by elder Tim Schwiebert

The significance of water baptism is that it symbolizes the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ and our identification with Him. It is not required for salvation but is an act of obedience and a public sign of what Christ has done inwardly in your life. An orientation class is required for all baptism candidates and these are held periodically on Sunday mornings. Children must be at least 8 years old to be water baptized. Email Betsy Dobrotka with any questions or concerns.

Through our study of Galatians, we will discover the treasures it reveals, including what it means to be justified by faith. Classes will include small group discussion.

Bible & journal (class handouts will be provided)

Group DetailsSpiritual Growth Plan - taught by Pastor Farrell
Wednesday, January 9th, 2019
7:00pm - 8:15pm in the Fireside Room
The secret to your success is found in your daily routines. It is discipline not desire that determines your destiny. A Spiritual Growth Plan is simply a tool to aid in pursuit of God and your personal growth and development. The reality is that we seldom live up to our God-given potential, simply because we are not intentional in the process. The Spiritual Growth Plan describes what we are going to do and is a tool to hold us accountable in the process. Start the beginning of 2019 with God-given goals and plans, and be encouraged as Pastor Farrell shows how you can reach them.
