How We Serve

Who We Are:

Foothills Community is a teaching church committed to the inspired Word of God, the Bible, firmly believing in its inerrancy.Our ministries are directed to increase the knowledge of God’s Word in the lives of our people, that they might know Christ and live for His purpose and glory.  Our services use contemporary music, drama, practical messages and other fresh approaches to present the fundamentals of the Christian faith. Our services are designed to help you learn how to apply Biblical principles to everyday life.

CHILDREN

Youngsters from birth to sixth grade receive instruction through Bible Classes, musical and recreational events . . .all part of the Christ centered KidZone program. Visit our KidZone website at www.mykidzone.org.

YOUTH ACTION MINISTRIES

At present our youth 8th grade to early college meet each Sunday evening 6:00-8:00 for a time of Bible study and fellowship. Each month they get together for an activity on a Friday or Saturday evening. ROCK is the name the youth have chosen to represent their desire to Reach Out for Christ our King.

As we grow and regroup, we look forward to Youth Action Ministries getting back into full swing ministering to Junior High, High School and College young people. Our desire is to once again have a mid-week opportunity for them to learn about God and how to apply His truth to their everyday lives. It has been during these youth group meetings they have tackled some of the toughest topics of adolescence, such as peer and family pressure, substance abuse, sexuality, friendships, and developing character, to name a few.

WOMEN

This ministry encourages and builds women to be women of God through Bible study groups, helping and hospitality ministries, as well as varied specialized projects and activities. Throughout the year, women gather for luncheons, retreats and special events. Softball, skydiving, and rock climbing are a few of the activites they have enjoyed together.

MEN

The establishing of a growing commitment to Christ is the purpose of the men's fellowship. Weekly Bible study, breakfast and luncheon meetings, retreats and special events all unite to encourage and train men to assume their role of leadership in the home, church and community.

FELLOWSHIP

HOME GROUPS

Home groups are an important part of Foothills Community. Participants find that these groups build a strong foundation for their Christian living, strengthen their grip on God's Word, enrich their personal relationship with the Lord and encourage meaningful friendships.

The home groups meet weekly for Bible study, prayer, and fellowship. The goal is to help each person mature in Christ through the process of discipleship, which involves encouragement to grow spiritually. The home group setting creates an atmosphere of love, acceptance, and meaningful friendship in which people can grow together and learn to meet each other's needs.

MUSIC:

Throughout the Bible, music has a very important place in the worship of God. All our services emphasize the “new song” which God has put in hearts through Salvation in Christ. Since the teaching of the Word is central to our services, the music ministry supports and provides a beautiful backdrop for the teaching ministry. It is contemporary and uplifting in style, ranging from upbeat to reflective, giving expression of our joy and faith in Christ.

COUNSELING:

DRAMA

This visual ministry is so powerful in relating to people of all ages, genders and stages of life. Our desire is to use drama to enhance the worship, teaching and fellowship during our services. We are always on the look out for gifted people to participate in and lead this ministry.

OUR PURPOSE:

We believe the purpose of the church of Jesus Christ is to glorify and honor God, bringing people into harmony with Him and one another through fellowship, discipleship and evangelism. And that it exists to win and train people for God’s redemptive purpose (Matthew 22:36-40; 28:19,20). It is our goal to be balanced in our 5-Fold Purpose to . . .

·Communicate God’s Word (Evangelism)

·Celebrate God’s Presence (Worship)

·Assimilate God’s Family (Fellowship)

·Educate God’s People (Discipleship)

·Demonstrate God’s Love (Ministry)
