MINISTRIES

Life Christian Church Ministries

Life Christian Church endeavors to provide something for every age demographic. We are sensitive to current needs, and it is our intention to assist every individual with their needs by helping them establish and deepen their relationship with God.

 

Bible Quizzing

Life Christian Church’s Bible Quizzing ministry encourages the study and memorization of Scripture for young people up through the age of 18 years old. Competitions are held on local, state and national levels. Participants can often quote approximately 170-550 verses of Scripture, depending on their age bracket and the division in which they are quizzing. While the primary objective of Bible Quizzing is to teach children the Word of God, the program also helps to promote the following positive character trains in its participants:

  • Self discipline
  • Good study habits
  • Team player attributes
  • Positive response to winning/losing

Junior Bible Quizzing consists of two divisions: the Beginner Division & the Junior Division. The Beginner Division consists of quizzers who are 8 years old and younger by January 1 of each year. These children are tasked with memorizing just under 200 verses of Scripture in a single season. The Junior Division consists of quizzers who are no older than 11 years old by January 1 of each year, and their material coverage typically includes around 275 verses.

Senior Bible Quizzing also consists of two divisions: the Intermediate Division & the Experienced Division. The Intermediate Division is for young people ages 12-14 and all rookie quizzers ages 12-18, and this division typically covers around 400 verses. The Experienced Division is for any young person ages 12-18, and they are typically required to memorize 525-550 verses to complete all of the material covered for each season.

Young Adults

“Hyphen” is the young adult ministry for young people ages 18-30. Life Christian Church focuses on raising awareness of young adult ministry and empowering our members for ministry positions. We have a weekly event with the youth each Saturday night (with the exception of the fourth Saturday night of each month) and participate in numerous outings throughout the year. Our goal is to equip young adults interested in ministry, as well as build relationships and strong leaders in the church.

For more information, please contact David J. Stephens at 517-290-0493.

Youth Ministry

“Ignite 517” is a group that desires to connect with students just like yourself. This group is for all young people ages 12-17. They host weekly Saturday evening youth activities along with the young adults group at 7 PM and occasionally participate in weekend retreats, regional and statewide events for youth in connection with other churches, and church camps.

Teens can read about culturally relevant issues from a Biblical perspective in INSIDEOUT magazine, a digital periodical produced by UPCI Youth Ministries. INSIDEOUT features theme-based articles, book and music reviews, interviews, devotions, student ministry profiles and much more.

“Move the Mission” is a ministry Ignite 517 fundraises for to support various ministries around the world. When you invest in Move the Mission, you intentionally share the gospel around the word.

Children's Ministry

Our Children’s Ministry is dedicated to loving and ministering to children of all ages. At 11 AM on Sunday mornings, we offer an exciting children’s church that takes place simultaneously with our service in the main sanctuary. Children enjoy lots of fun with a staff that loves children and desires to help each child develop a personal relationship with Jesus on their level.

Life Littles

This group of 2-5 year-old children meets during our regular Wednesday night service! We have lots of fun, but we believe learning about Jesus is a priority. We believe Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.” Each week’s schedule of activities includes worship, a lesson, snacks, and crafts. We believe we are preparing these children for the future God has for them.

Nursery Ministry

Our tended nursery is available for all children 3 months old to 30 months old and is open on Sundays during the 11 AM worship service. Our attentive staff is ready to lovingly care for your infants and young toddlers while you are able to freely worship in the sanctuary without distraction

Transportation Ministry

Life Christian Church’s transportation ministry is passionate about giving a ride to those who would otherwise be unable to attend church. Bro. Dave Walsh, the transportation coordinator, does whatever is required to bring someone from their home to the sanctuary. If you need transportation to/from a service, Bro. Dave can be contacted at 517-599-4445. Please be sure to contact him the day before the service so he can plan accordingly.

Music Ministry

The purpose of Life Christian Church’s music ministry is to usher in the presence of God to every service. Our music team, currently consisting of musicians, worship leaders, a praise team, and a chorale, makes this their mission in each and every service.

Information Technology (IT)

The IT department at Life Christian Church has expanded quickly in 2020. Not only does our team consist of sound and projection technicians, but now this department also includes a videography department with plans to expand in the future. Currently, our services are livestreamed & archived on Facebook and Youtube.
