Wednesdays during Spring Midweek Anderson, Haywood, and Simpsonville Campuses This ministry is designed with your spiritual growth in mind.
Following Paul’s instruction in Ephesians 4, we desire to “equip you” to be a fully devoted follower of Jesus after connecting with Him. The word “equip” means to become complete or fit for a purpose. Because we desire to be a church of disciple-makers, you are invited to join Equipping U to grow as a disciple-maker. In other words, this is a ministry to help believers go DEEPER and be commissioned into the mission of our church.
Wednesdays during Spring Midweek Chapel | Simpsonville Campus Join us for Reset in the Chapel beginning January 8! This will be a time on Wednesday evenings to cover topics like prayer and the Trinity. There will also be a time of prayer each week.
