MINISTRIES
Small Groups - Life Connection
Life Connection is a small groups ministry here at Abundant Life that meet on Sunday Nights at 6:00 pm. We believe a core value to strong Christian faith is not only connecting with God but also connecting with others through the process of building relationships. Small groups allow us to get to know each other in a small inviting environment. We have something for everyone, so we hope you will take the time to see what group interests you.

Mpact
Mpact is the Assemblies of God discipleship program for Preschool through High School girls (and boys in Rainbows). Mpact Club is a nationwide program involving over 174,000 girls in more than 22,000 clubs. Mpact is where the biblical Titus 2 principle is put into action – women mentoring girls. Mpact has a three-fold purpose:
1. Winning girls to Jesus Christ through love and acceptance.
2. Teaching girls to obey everything Jesus commanded us – helping girls develop providing encouragement, support and accountability and by providing a safe, Christian environment for each girl to develop her gifts and abilities.
3. Acquainting girls with the Gospel message – this is what our Missionettes club is all about. Each week brings something new, fun, interesting and exciting. Interspersed with learning are sleepovers, individual classroom parties, numerous get-togethers, and many other exhilarating activities.
Rainbows Club falls under the leadership of the Mpact girls club and is a program designed for preschool boys and girls (ages 3 and 4). In Rainbows your child will learn exciting Bible stories, fun new songs, and earn colorful animal badges. This Club is built around the theme of Noah’s Ark.
