Men’s Ministry

COMPASS is a gathering of Christian men who are serious about authenticity, community, humility, spiritual transformation, and redemption. Our purpose during this gathering is to talk and encourage one another in our common journey. Each week a transformational question or topic is presented for discussion. Responding to this prompt, men are encouraged to share honestly, out of our own personal experience, without defense, our personal challenges, worries, failures, and triumphs over those things with which we struggle. COMPASS offers a safe space where you can show up as your authentic self and speak with vulnerability about your relationships with God and others.

COMPASS meets year round on Wednesdays at 6:30pm.

Please contact Hartley Wright for more information.

Community Helps!

We need men with and without skills to support members of the Woodcrest community and the Columbia community at large. We get regular requests for things like small construction projects, help moving a dresser, fixing a leaky faucet, etc. Would you help? Please contact Masood Heidari.

EXPEDITION BIBLE

It is easier to see where God is leading you when you know where God has been.

Join us this semester in Expedition Bible where we can take a deeper dive into the Bible together! Whether you know a lot about the Bible or are new on your journey, we are excited to take this adventure together and explore God’s plan of hope for all, not just some! This semester we will be studying the book of Hebrews, which defines who Jesus of Nazareth is, through the use of the Old Testament. No registration needed.
