As artists, God created us to reflect His creativity and express His beauty through the artistic gifts He has given us. The arts have the ability to speak to hearts in ways everyday language does not. The Artistic Collaborative is a space for artists of all types in our church to come together, listen to the Lord through prayer and His Word, respond to Him by creating, and collaborate with other artists. Together, the artists facilitate synergy, as we create works that enhance the sermons preached on a Sunday at The Chapel. 

 At our gatherings, we look into Scripture, following the current sermon series, share together from our hearts, create, share creations, etc. We also want to hone one another’s gifts as we create and be a safe place to do that. Please join us on the second Wednesday of the month from 6:30-8:30pm in the Choir Room. 

All types of artists and creatives are welcome!

The Art of Marriage is a study for adults that helps participants blend their personalities and their life circumstances to create a divinely-inspired work of art — marriage.

Every marriage is unique, expressed by the colorful personalities of each spouse and textured by the circumstances at play in their lives. Blending these to make marriage work is a divinely inspired art form — challenging to master but definitely worth the effort.

The Art of Marriage is a 6 week long class meeting on Sunday morning during the 9am service in room 123.
Classes will begin September 10th and go through October 15th.

Teens and adults with special needs can join our Assisted Learning class during the 10:40am service, where participation is accessible and adaptable. (This class is available as an in-person experience or can be attended remotely via Zoom.) 

Our Family Room, located across from the Nursery on the first floor, is a place where families can participate in the main worship service in a safe space where noise, movement, fidgeting, and playing are welcomed.

We can provide a designated buddy to any individuals who require one-on-one assistance on Sunday mornings. Buddies can help to keep focus on the lesson, participate as much as possible, or offer a break when needed. Buddies are available for children, teens, and adults, and are thoroughly screened and trained before being matched with a friend.

 We know new spaces can be quite intimidating, but we're here to help! Feel free to contact us during the week if you would like a tour of our building or if you have questions about which environment would be best for your loved one.
