Wednesday@First provides an opportunity to our members and new guests to experience a time of Christian fellowship in a more relaxed atmosphere. The process of becoming a mature Christian involves us in a variety of learning experiences. We believe that growth occurs in several areas, and we encourage everyone to be purposeful about pursuing growth in every area.
Spanning 10 weeks, twice a year (winter and fall), our scheduled classes are taught by experienced people from the congregation who bring a wealth of information and experience to the classroom. Classes begin at 4:15 p.m.and continue until 5:45 p.m., at which time they break for church dinner. They begin again at 6:30 p.m. and last until approximately 8:00 p.m. This fall, classes begin September 5th.
Several choir rehearsals are also held on Wednesday afternoons and evenings. Whether you are seeking a great meal and Christian companionship, or deepening your understanding of God's word, you are sure to find something of interest. Take a look at our Wednesdays@First class schedule below and then join us for a night of fun, love, and Christian fellowship!

Our Wednesday night meals are a time of celebration and fellowship for our members. Great food
and Christian companionship are one way for our members to relax and unwind after a stressful work
day. Delicious meals are prepared by a dedicated group of church volunteers headed by Darryl Magrino,
Executive Chef at Monroe Golf . These delicious and nutritious meals are prepared at
the church and served hot for those who wish to participate. The cost is five ($5) dollars for
adults, two ($2) dollars for children and three ($3) dollars for full-time undergraduate students.
