Adult Ministries
 

Adult Ministries at Providence promote fellowship and provide opportunities which enable us to get connected to God and each other. Small group experiences are offered in a wide variety of formats including Sunday morning classes, weekly Bible Study groups, prayer team, Disciple classes and recreational events. We believe that through small group connections we grow in our faith, care for each other, develop our gifts, share joys and concerns, serve others and have FUN! If you have questions about how to get connected in Adult Ministries, email Leslie Lunsford at LLunsford@provumc.com

We believe that it is God's will for each of us to be involved in the ministries of the church. The members of Providence UMC are its ministers assisted by the staff.

It is our hope that we will not simply have 'attenders' but will help create 'extenders'; people who will extend God's love and caring far beyond the walls of our own church.

Small Group Page
From 8:45-9:45am, 10am-10:45am and 11am-12noon each week, we have classes for all ages and stages. Visit our
Small Group page for class descriptions, times, and room numbers.

DivorceCare
Providence UMC and Heritage Christian Church are excited to team up to offer fall 13-week DivorceCare class and DivorceCare for Kids for children 5 -12 years old. The classes begin meeting in The Brick building at HCC on Wednesdays @ 6:30 pm at 2130 Redwine Road in Fayetteville. Free workbooks and childcare will be provided. If you cannot attend the fall session, plan to be at Providence for the spring session beginning in January.
Most people will tell you that separation and divorce are two of the most painful and stressful experiences you'll ever face. DivorceCare can help you confront these many challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. DivorceCare for Kids has specially trained leaders to help children recover from the hurt of divorce and foster communication between the parent and child during this sad time. You don't have to go through this alone, please join us so your healing process can begin. If you are interested in signing up or just want more info, please call Barbara Hudson (678-773-4656); Charlie Penny (678-570-7775); or Wendy & Tim Peterson (678-977-1499).
