MERCY WEDNESDAYS

Come share a meal with Mercy and meet new faces.

Mercy Wednesdays offers the opportunity to connect outside of Sunday mornings. We start with a free meal prepared by Mercy volunteers, and then move into mid-sized groups/classes to learn and grow together. Offered seasonally, each Mercy Wednesdays session provides something for everyone! Childcare and elementary-aged programming is also provided. Dinner will be served from 6:00PM - 6:30PM. Groups are held from 6:30PM - 8:00PM.

Join us for our Fall Session of Mercy Wednesdays from September 30 - November 18. 
Groups/classes offered:
The Alpha Course: Designed to provide scholars an opportunity to connect with one another while providing the opportunity to share thoughts, ideas, and opinions in a safe and caring environment, Alpha helps bring people together while providing the chance to encounter Jesus. All welcome, no matter your background or beliefs. Sign up here.
Deeper Dive Bible Study with Pastor Gary: Join Pastor Gary for a Bible study where he goes deeper into his sermon notes and shares insights he doesn’t have time to cover on Sunday mornings.
Mercy Prayer Training Class (Sept.30 /Oct. 7 or Oct.28/Nov.4): Join us in learning how to use the Vineyard 5 Step Prayer Model, which is a relational, interactive way of praying for others as we listen to the Holy Spirit. This class is a refresher for all Mercy Prayer Team members and anyone else who wants to learn! Interested in leading a small group or joining the prayer team at Mercy? This class will equip you for that, too! Two Session Class meets twice in two consecutive weeks this session. Returning people are welcome to come again!
Alpha Youth Course (MercyYouth): The Alpha Youth Series is designed to give young people space to explore their questions about life, faith, and purpose. This series is designed to resonate universally, empowering young people from all walks of life to confidently invite their friends, regardless of their country, context, or background.
Young Peacemakers (MercyKids): Mercy will be offering a Peacemaking Class for both K-2nd and 3-5th Grade students.  Pulling from the Young Peace Maker curriculum, this will be an 8-week series focused on helping kids be mindful of their emotions during conflict and applying Biblical wisdom in resolving it.
Watercolor with Jen: Watercolor Wednesdays are back! Come create with the Mercy community and enjoy the benefits of watercolor painting! God designed creativity into each one of us, and engaging in a creative practice connects us to our creator and helps ease the busy mind. This Wednesday night class series will provide a different prompt every week to get your creativity flowing and explore ways to connect with the community through mindful art-making.  Join any time.  Feel free to bring your own watercolor supplies (if you have them) or use Jen’s supplies.  No prior art experience is required.
Grupo de Espanol: Bible Study and spiritual formation for single women - Spanish speaking. Estudio bíblico y formación espiritual para mujeres solteras de habla hispana.
Membership Class (TBD):  You belong at Mercy! Membership class is a pressure-free opportunity to learn more about Mercy, and consider calling our church your home.
