(Young Adults, Adults and Seniors)
 
We offer a variety of special electives on Tuesday evenings throughout the year. Each 4-8 week class hones in on a different topic, relying on scripture to teach us how to become more Christ-like in our marriages and parenting, how to find joy in the midst of health conditions, overcome grief, or deal with other challenges in our lives.

Worship and Music Team Ministry
 
Worship is more than song; it’s an expression of our love of God and yet another way to grow in Him. Our worship, music and choir teams are open to singers and instrumentalists of any experience or range. We view each practice, performance and opportunity as a special extension of our relationship with Christ.  After all, “It’s not about us!” Contact Pastor Matt for more information and practice times.
Visitation and Meal Ministries
 
When someone is in the hospital or confined to their home, we make it a priority to visit, pray with families, prepare meals, and offer any other help we can. We are brothers and sisters in Christ, called to tend to one another in times of need! Our team works diligently to provide love, prayer and support to those who are sick, recovering from surgery, or dealing with grief after the death of  a loved one.
Barnabas Connection
 
Our aim is threefold:  to consistently pray for all of our missionaries and mission related ministries through monthly meetings; to encourage our missionaries with e-mails, letters, and special projects; and to keep the leadership and congregation updated on the endeavors of our missionaries by sharing their prayer requests and needs. 
Shepherd’s Groups
 
Our Shepherd’s Groups are specialized small groups that meet at homes during the week for fellowship, study, prayer and support. We offer groups comprised of members from different backgrounds or stations in life. Each group also prioritizes outreach within and outside of the church body.

Hearts of Love
Our Hearts of Love ministry (HoL) works with Samaritan’s Purse over the course of the year to send shoe boxes filled with essential items around the world to children in need. These aren’t just shoeboxes either. Each one is used by missionaries to share the gospel. HoL meets at least once a month and also helps with outreach banquets, meals and other things that serve people in our church and community.

Easter Seals
 
There are many overlooked adults who have difficulty “getting to Jesus” by traditional means due to life-altering disabilities. Our work with Easter Seals and adults with special needs is designed to clear away such obstacles, connecting everyone to Jesus with the help of compassionate volunteers who desire to serve and love as our Savior did. Please contact the church office if you’d like more information.
BreakfastMen’s and Ladies’ Breakfast
 
Once a month, we gather together to eat breakfast, fellowship, and to hear the testimonies of a monthly speaker. It’s a wonderful time for our TGSM family, as well as visitors and extended family, to meet off site and build each other up in the wonderful love of Christ!

Our Celebrate Recovery prison ministry cultivates Christ-centered relationships inside prison walls, embracing incarcerated individuals and watching as their lives are transformed. Bible study, teaching and mentoring combine to help prisoners connect to Jesus and renewed purpose.
