Connect Small Groups
Small groups offer adults the chance to experience Christian growth and community in a small group setting. The focus is on prayer, worship, Bible study, fellowship and service to others.  These groups are facilitated by leaders who are receiving ongoing training and support.  September and January offer the most small group options to choose from, but you can join a small group throughout the year.  If you would like to know what is available right now, please contact R.A. Atanus at ra@southparkchurch.org.

MOPS meets on alternating Wednesday mornings, 9:30-11:30 a.m..  Contact the church office for more information, or visit our webpage

Membership
This class will introduce you to the mission, heritage, and leadership structure of South Park Church. If you have been checking us out, this is a great way to take your commitment to the next level. The class runs just over 3 hours and is generally offered once in the spring and once in the fall. It is regularly taught by a pastor and/or one or more lay leaders.

Some people take the class simply to learn more about South Park Church. Others choose to apply for membership after completing the class. This involves writing your faith story and sharing it with a small group. Further details of the process are shared in the class. Contact the church office for more information and to find out when the next class will be held.
