Ministries
What is adult discipleship? When men and women gather to become disciples they are immersing themselves in God and in the life of Jesus. As biblical knowledge strengthens so does one's love for God and for people; therefore, the desire to go out into the world and share the gospel leads to a life of ministry.
What is Children's Ministry? People's E.C. has fun and educational activities that help our little ones learn about the love of God and the importance of learning His Word. Each Sunday at 9:45 AM Jr. Church/Sunday school is provided for children to learn, play and craft. A children's message is given during the 10:30 am service.

"And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love."
