EASTSIDE EVENTS
Finance Class
Wednesdays, Jan. 15th, 22nd, & 29th
Eastside will be hosting a Kingdom Finance Class. This beginner class will discuss what the Bible has to say about money and give practical tools on how to set up your finances to honor God by using what He has given you, well. We will be using scary words like budget, debt, and goals, but this will be a class with no judgement with a goal to help you see a financial future that isn't paycheck to paycheck.

Family Dedication
Sunday
Sunday, January 26th
This is a special time where families can make a public commitment to discipling their children in the way of the Lord, as well as a time where we as the Body can affirm their commitment and support them.
Many churches call this opportunity “Baby Dedications” but we recognize that families are often formed in many ways through birth, foster care, and adoption; so if you have children of any age that you’d like to commit to teaching them God’s way of living, this opportunity is for you.
To participate in Family Dedications, your child's name and picture must be submitted to Coco at info@eastsideidc.com.
Refuge
Official start date is 01.27.25 and each group lasts 8 weeks

Grow spiritually and gain freedom from hurt, destructive behaviors, and life’s struggles in the context of community through support, accountability, spiritual encouragement, and education.

Growing in
Christ Workshop
Wednesdays, January 29th - February 26th from 6:30pm-8pm
Growing in Christ is a course that gives new and growing Christians a very basic foundation for their faith. You will study the Bible in small groups with a mentor and learn how to apply the Bible to your life. You don't need to have done Part 1 of Growing in Christ to take Part 2. For more information contact Carol Lewis or Claire-Marie.
Rooted
Wednesdays, February 5th - April 23rd from 6pm-8pm
Rooted is an 11 week program designed to firmly establish the basic rhythms of the Christian faith in our lives. Through group discussions and daily devotions, we will consider spiritual habits, such as reading scripture, prayer, service, confession, and more in order to encourage one another to maintain active and vibrant relationships with both God and the community of the church.
Community Groups
All throughout Scripture we see that God intends for His people to share community with each other and with Himself. We hope to embody that beyond our Sunday morning gatherings by inviting each other into our lives and homes on a regular basis in small groups. These smaller gatherings are called Community Groups, and are a place for people to build deeper relationships with other believers as they grow deeper in their relationship with Christ.
Our Community Groups meet weekly or biweekly and generally consist of 10-15 people who share food together, discuss the gospel, and pray for each other. All the times, days, and neighborhoods of our Community Groups are listed on the Sign Up form below. After signing up, a team member will email you more specific details about the group (address, contact info, parking, etc.). You are welcome to try as many groups as you like, and there is no expectation of a long-term commitment to any one group.
For more questions, you can connect with our team at communitygroups@eastsideidc.com.

Matthew 9:37-38: “Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few…” The youth ministries are faithfully meeting on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and need more faithful adults willing to come be volunteer leaders and invest in the lives of the kids in our community. We accept all different ages, abilities and we especially need men as we have only one in each ministry. You can speak with Brandi or Andrew if you want to get involved!

Here are the ways you can come together for corporate prayer:
Daily Prayer Zoom Calls: Gather together from the comfort of your home. These meetings happen daily from 6 AM-7 AM.
Sunday Morning Prayer: These meetings are weekly from 9 AM - 9:50 AM in the conference room.
