MONTHLY FELLOWSHIP EVENTS and SPECIAL SERVICES

1st Sunday Dinner - On the 1st Sunday of each month, we all bring food and stay for dinner immediately following the morning service. This is a time we take just to fellowship with each other.

Fellowship Group Meetings - Our church meets monthly in the homes of our church family. These monthly meetings are directed by a care Pastor for each group. These times focus on sharing, caring and praying for the needs of those in each group. This ministry models the New Testament pattern of maturing in Christ. The "home meetings" are informal and uplifting for all who attend.

Men’s Ministry - On the 2nd Saturday of each month, our men meet at 8:00 am in the dining hall for our Men’s Brotherhood Prayer Breakfast. Of course, there is fun, good food and fellowship, but we also study the Word, share needs and come together in prayer.

Our men also get together at various times in the year to go bowling, golfing, or on some other outing.

In May of each year, our men travel to Camp Boothe in Green Pond, AL for the Alabama Church of God of Prophecy Men’s Retreat. This is a wonderful trip where we spend time in fellowship, have a nice banquet, then enjoy an awesome time in God’s presence Friday evening in worship and the following Saturday morning in service.

“Yahweh Sisterhood” Women’s Ministry - Our ladies meet one evening each month to have fellowship, snacks and fun time. We share our prayer needs, our trials, our testimonies, and our praise reports. We then put our focus on God through devotion. Some meetings include an in-depth study of the Word; all include a wonderful time of prayer. Each time we pour our hearts out, we grow closer to God and closer to each other.

Our Women’s Ministry plans many of the monthly and annual events and fundraisers, as well as other projects that bless not only our ladies, but the entire church. We are planning future events to benefit others in our community.

In May of each year, our ladies travel to Camp Boothe for Ladies Retreat. Some of the ladies go down early for shopping and eating out. They attend the banquet, then the awesome worship service, and a dessert party afterwards. We encourage all women (not just those belonging to our church) to attend this event. For more information, please contact us at yahwehsistermail@aol.com or visit the Camp Boothe website at www.campboothe.org.

We encourage all women of our community (who don’t attend church regularly elsewhere) to visit us at one of regular church services, one of our monthly meetings or other events. We believe you will find a group of ladies who will welcome you, offer you friendship, and do our best to show you the love of Christ.

(Y.E.S.) SERVICE - On the 3rd Sunday night of each month, our Youth lead us in a Youth Explosion Sunday (Y.E.S.) service. We gather for worship. Our youth, “Consumed” & “Crossfire,” minister in song, with special speakers and through dramas and skits. These young folks are very talented, but more importantly, they are anointed by God. This service is always a blessing. Afterwards, we join in the dining hall for snacks and fellowship.

QUARTERLY C.H.I.P SERVICE: On the last Sunday of the quarter, we have our Children’s Hip Inspirational Program (CHIP). Our children conduct the entire service by opening with prayer, leading worship, drama, dance, puppets, and the sermon.The presentation of our “CHIP Kids of the Month” is made at each service. Members of our congregation anonymously nominate children from our church who have been extraordinary role models to their peers and exemplified leadership and a Christ-like spirit. This is a great honor for great kids.
