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
