ADULT MINISTRIES

Adult discipleship at MOPC seeks to provide opportunities for adults in all stages of faith to engage in spiritual formation and Christ-centered community that teaches, encourages, and challenges people to experience Jesus and become his passionate followers.

We are a vibrant faith community that's often described as warm, welcoming, and feeling like family.

For those seeking to get more involved, we have a range of classes, Bible studies, small groups, and fellowship events regularly available.

Adult Discipleship Classes

Sundays 9:45-10:45 a.m.

Every Sunday between services, MOPC offers Biblical and topical classes that help us engage our minds and hearts to grow in faith. All are welcome to attend. Class topics have included:

The parables of Jesus
Citizenship in the Kingdom of God
Biblical peacemaking
Transformative learning and spiritual renewal
Old Testament wisdom and poetry
Understanding trauma
…and many others!

Information and resources shared in select classes can be found on the MOPC Adult Discipleship Class Resources drive:

Community Groups

Community Groups at MOPC are small groups of 8-12 people who commit to gathering together during the week to learn, encourage, challenge, and pray for one another as a way of experiencing Jesus and becoming his passionate followers. Groups typically meet weekly or every other week in individual homes from October-May. For more information about Community Groups, please contact Pastor Bre Magill.
