MINISTRIES
Children's Ministry
Children's Church
Children ages 4 years through 5th grade enjoy a wonderful junior church service every Sunday during the 11:00 worship service time. The kids enjoy puppets, songs, and a Bible lesson.
Juniors
For our 3rd through 6th graders we have activities throughout the year that culminates with camp at the Wilds in the Summer.
The Gospel Project
The Gospel Project is a Christ-centered, chronological Bible study and meets Sunday evenings at 6:00pm during the normal school calendar year for ages two through high school age. For more information, contact the church office.
Summer Bible Time
During the summer months we have Summer Time Bible Time for ages 4 years through Teens. The kids have bible study time, craft time, game time and snacks and meet Sundays at 6:00pm.
Teens
The Focus of our Teen Ministry
is found in Colossians 1:10; “That ye might walk worthy of the lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God.” Our desire is to assist our students in their personal walk, work and wisdom during this time of their life. We strive to help our kids grow to become godly teenagers, our teenagers to become godly college students and our college students to become godly adults. Growing in the Lord-that is what our Student Life ministry is all about.
Sunday School Class
Our Sunday school class centers around our wonderful Lord, Jesus Christ. The focus of our class is to learn who our Lord is and all that was accomplished according to the Scriptures. Heroes of the faith, object lessons and the ministry of Christ are just a sample of what is taught every Sunday!
Wednesday Night Service
The focus of our Wednesday night service is our Christian Life Series. Topics, concerns and issues that teenagers face are looked at from a Biblical perspective to see what Christ says about them. Our desire for this teaching and preaching time is to give them Bible answers to the questions and issues the teens are facing.
Activities
Throughout the year, our teens enjoy activities such as bowling, snow tubing, paintball, volleyball, and many others. The highlights of our year include summer camp as well as our teen missions trip when our schedule allows!
Music Ministry
God has truly blessed our church with a wonderful group of people who serve the Lord each week in the music ministry. The whole goal of the music ministry here at Emmanuel is to create an atmosphere of pleasing worship to Christ. All of our music is Christ honoring, uplifting and encouraging. Psalm 105:2 is the verse we gear our music ministry towards. Our Choir Director would love to welcome you into the music ministry. If you would like more information, please contact Brent or Stephanie Cook or the church office! We look forward to worshipping with you this Sunday!
Adult Life
Senior Adults
The senior adult ministry at Emmanuel is designed to give those who have been faithful for so many years an opportunity to get together and fellowship. The Bible says to give honor to whom honor is due. We seek to honor those who have paved the way for the next generation and served their Lord faithfully. We get together every Wednesday morning for a Bible study, and try to plan an activity at least every quarter. Our Senior Adults are also honored at a banquet at the end of the year. Be sure to check our upcoming events for activities!
Ladies' Ministry

Ladies Bible Study
We have a monthly bible study lead by our Pastor's wife. We enjoy a time of fellowship with a meal before we start our lesson.
Prayer Groups
The ladies prayer group meets each Sunday evening at 5:30 pm prior to the evening service.
