Connect with Others

Like pieces of a puzzle perfectly fitted together, God connects you to His church. The Christ-like caring of small groups plays an important role in your growth as a disciple.

Adults

Sunday School

Sunday School at University Baptist Church serves many roles through its age graded small groups. We see it in its most basic of roles as the Bible teaching ministry of the church with a goal of equipping others for ministry and leadership. We also see its role as a vital place for the church to express its core values in ministry. Finally, we see it as a tremendous outreach and evangelistic arm of the church. There is class for every age group, from babies to senior adults.

Choir, Praise Team & Band

Sing along with other friends, play your instrument and prepare for opportunities to serve with one of our musical worship leading team; childcare is provided during the 6:30 p.m. Wednesday night Adult Choir rehearsals. Let Michael Peeler know you want to participate in one of our musical groups.

Women's Bible Studies

Dig into God’s Word with the various women's Bible studies. Video and workbook resources usually compliment the small group guided discussions. For times and names of upcoming Bible studies, please contact Cheryl Craddock or check out the Women's Ministry page.
