The ACT Parish is a UNITED MINISTRY WITH SIX MISSION POINTS!
Each of our mission points has a long history of faithful witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Together they form the ACT Parish that strives to maintain and grow as faithful witnesses, and to impact our area with the good news of God's grace for all!

Men's Bible Study resumes at Sherrie'sAt 7 a.m. on the first Saturday of the month, Pastor Daryl leads the Men of the ACT Parish in a Bible Study.
The group met in October and will continue meeting monthly. The Bible Study will be working through Augustine's 'City of God.' Before you stay after because it sounds way too complicated, please know Pastor Daryl has worked with Soldiers for the better part of his adult life and will use language that will make it possible to understand the work of this Saint who influenced the church and the way we believe more than anyone aside from the first church leaders (Paul, Peter ...). |

Nativity Sets made by our youth
Made by our 7th through 10th graders, with a bit of adult supervision and assistance, the youth of the ACT Parish are producing Rustic Nativity Sets in order to raise funds for future missions trips and other youth events and activities. They will sell for $35 each. We are currently taking orders at all six of the churches and the nativity sets will be delivered before November 15th.
Confirmation at the Little Farm
Say what you want to about Pastor Daryl's mutton chops (he has actually shaved them off since the picture above was taken), the young men and women of the ACT Parish are gorgeous! The pastors are not trying to fill their confirmation students minds with things that they need to recite back in order to check off items on a list before they affirm the promises that were made at their baptism. No, the goal is to awaken their own ability to see the faith that God has given them in the Spirit - and to grow it boldly!
