OUR MINISTRIES
Small Groups
Oak Grove will launch a new Small Groups Ministry this fall on Sunday, August 25th!
Sunday School
Sunday school classes for all ages are settings for study of the Bible, of modern day issues, and of Christian practices. Some classes have a rotation of teachers while others are subject-based and are often taught by members of the class or outside guests. Nursery and child care are provided by the church. The classes enjoy and look for visitors, so please feel free to visit until you find the class where you feel most at home. Age categories pertaining to adult classes are for information and do not indicate age restrictions. If you have questions and need to speak with someone about Adult Christian Education, please contact Susan Allen Grady (404-636-758, ext 212). Classes are from 9:35am-10:45am on Sunday mornings.
Disciple Bible Study
Bible study is at the core of adult spiritual growth; it is emphasized in Disciple Bible Study Classes, with Disciple I the long-term, foundational course that covers 70% of the Bible as the foundational course offered yearly and encouraged for all church members. There are long-term, as well as short term Bible studies offered frequently and typically on Wednesday and Sunday evenings and some weekdays. For information on our next class, contact Susan Allen Grady.
United Methodist Men
The United Methodist Men’s Fellowship (UMMF) was chartered December 1, 1954. All male church members are encouraged to join in the Fellowship’s quest to expand its ministry to serve the church and community. United Methodist Men meet the second Monday of each month at 6:15 p.m. with a superb evening meal and program. These meetings provide opportunities for spiritual growth and understanding in this ethnically, culturally, and religiously diverse community and world in which we live.
United Methodist Women
The purpose of United Methodist Women is to be a community of women whose purpose is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ, to develop a creative, supportive fellowship, and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church. Our general meeting is the first Wednesday of the month at 11:00 with lunch following at noon. Executive Board Meeting is the first Wednesday at 9:30 a.m.
WOW
is this “Weekly Oxygen for Women?” It is a different kind of small group experience where women of all ages and stages meet each week to feed our spiritual needs so we can feed the needs of those who depend on us. It is a group of women who share and pray together, study God’s Word as we seek to know Him better, live in His grace and guidance, and apply His Word to our daily life. The purpose of WOW is to offer a place where you can grow and learn without adding more to your already overflowing plate. All women are welcome!! For more information on our daytime WOW, contact Mandy Jackson at azjackson69@hotmail.com. For more information on our evening WOW, contact Faye Traynelis at fayetraynelis@att.net.
