At PEFC we believe that small groups can provide an excellent way to connect with other believers and help you grow in Christ.

Some Adult Bible Fellowships (ABFs) are currently meeting, and others are being formed. For more details, contact Steve Hopper at the church office.

“ABFs A PLACE TO BELONG and A PLACE TO GROW”

A PLACE TO BELONG

We want to provide a place for adults to connect. We want you to be able to say, “That’s my group,” and to be known by others and share in the care for one another.

On most Sundays time is made for fellowship and interaction with others. Special events outside of class are also times to connect with others.

A PLACE TO GROW

Each Adult Bible Fellowship offers practical Biblical teaching by one of our excellent teachers. We offer a variety of studies and subjects, as we seek to offer a balanced curriculum that will enable adults to grow in their Christian walk and apply God’s word in their lives.

Current Series:

Watch the bulletin or check at the information center for current topics and series that are being offered.

“Jesus, Name
Above All Names”

Jesus said “I have come that they might have life and have it abundantly.” (Jn 10:10)

We will discover the many ways the Lord offers to provide for our needs as we explore the “I am” statements and names of Jesus from the Gospel of John.

Faith Builders ABF
“The Book of Titus”

How does a believer live the Christian life in an ungodly culture?

When it seems we are going up stream against the current of our world, how can we not only survive, but to thrive?

In this small New Testament book we will discover enlightening truths and practical wisdom to help us.

“Young At Heart”

“Young At Heart” or “YAH” for short, group is a newly forming group of “maturing” adults, that meets regularly for fellowship and outreach. The group typically meets at 12 noon on the second Thursday of the month for a potluck lunch and program or for other activities and trips.
