LIFE
TOGETHER.
Ministries that help us know Jesus, care for one another, grow as disciples, and make Him known.
MORE THAN
SUNDAY
MORNING.
The life of the church extends throughout the week.
Our ministries are not separate programs competing for attention. They are different settings in which we seek to carry out the ordinary work Christ has given His church.
We gather around God's Word, pray together, build relationships, disciple one another, care for families, encourage believers, and create opportunities for others to hear the good news of Jesus.
Whether you are a child, teenager, university student, man, woman, single, married, new to Christianity, or have followed Christ for many years, there are places to become connected to the life of our church.
01
HELPING
YOUNG HEARTS
KNOW JESUS.
We want children to grow up knowing the story of Scripture and hearing the good news of Jesus clearly.
Children are an important part of the life of our church. We want to support parents in their responsibility to disciple their children while also providing opportunities for children to learn God's Word alongside their church family.
During the Sunday worship service, children approximately four through ten years old can participate in a class focused on Scripture and the gospel.
A nursery is available during the Sunday service for infants through four years old. A parent or guardian remains with their child in the nursery.
02
GROWING
TOGETHER
IN CHRIST.
A place for young people to build friendships, open the Bible, ask questions, and grow together.
Our hope is to see young people grow in their love for Jesus through meeting together, praying together, reading the Bible, worshiping, having fun, and forming deep and godly relationships.
Youth ministry is not simply about providing something for teenagers to do. We want to help young people become lifelong disciples of Jesus who know His Word and are meaningfully connected to the life of the church.
03
EX
DEUS.
A Christian student fellowship for university students in Reykjavík.
Ex Deus creates a place for students to open the Bible, explore Christianity, build genuine friendships, and think seriously about questions of truth, meaning, faith, identity, purpose, and Jesus Christ.
Our gatherings are open to committed Christians, those exploring Christianity, and anyone who simply wants to join the conversation.
04
GROWING
AS SISTERS
IN CHRIST.
Helping women grow in their relationship with Christ and encourage one another in faithful Christian living.
We desire to cultivate a community of women who are grounded in God's Word, devoted to prayer, and equipped to serve the Lord faithfully in their homes, church, and everyday lives.
Through Bible study, fellowship, smaller gatherings, mutual encouragement, and time together, women have opportunities to form meaningful relationships and strengthen one another as sisters in Christ.

05
FAITHFUL
MEN OF
GOD.
Helping men grow in their relationship with Christ and encourage one another toward faithful Christian living.
Our desire is to cultivate a community of men who are grounded in God's Word, committed to prayer, and equipped to lead and serve faithfully in their homes, church, workplaces, and everyday lives.
Through regular teaching, fellowship, smaller groups, and accountability, we seek to strengthen one another as brothers in Christ.

06
SMALLER
GROUPS.
DEEPER LIFE.
Sunday brings the whole church together. Home groups create space to know one another more personally.
Individuals and families meet in homes and other locations at various times throughout the week for smaller, personal gatherings centered on study, discipleship, prayer, fellowship, and encouragement.
These groups give us opportunities to talk honestly about life, apply the truths of Scripture, pray for one another, carry burdens, encourage faithfulness, and develop the kinds of relationships in which meaningful discipleship can happen.
MANY
SETTINGS.
ONE BODY.
These ministries are not separate communities. Together, they are part of the life of one local church.
Our goal is not simply to keep people busy throughout the week. We want every ministry to help people know Christ more deeply, grow in love for His people, use their gifts to serve others, and become equipped to make Jesus known.
The center of our life together remains the gathering of the whole church on Sunday, while these smaller settings give us additional opportunities for discipleship, fellowship, mission, and care.
