Growing as “disciples making disciples” takes many forms at FPC-Mesa. Child-friendly Kids Worship, adult Sunday School classes and midweek opportunities for children, youth, and adults mix with a strong small group ministry. In and through it all, we seek to be Building God’s Family. We do this by partnering with families to promote a thirst for God, foster spiritual growth and work together to build God’s family. Our core values are: to be child-centered, to build relationships and to teach, creatively and prayerfully, in a fun and safe environment.

Small Groups
The heart and soul of adults becoming disciples at FPC is in our small group ministry. Close to twenty small groups meet on various days at various times for various courses of study. Some groups are age-related, some are life-style related, some aren’t much related at all but enjoy meeting together for Christian study and fellowship. The small groups and study topics are almost always changing, but the list here is representative of what there is to choose from:
Different Books of the Bible
Christian Life Guide studies
New Testament from the Back Side
The Bible Made Easy
Prayer
Christian Finance
Parenting
Understanding Your S.H.A.P.E. For Ministry
Contagious Christian
Lenten & Advent classes during those Christian seasons
Please check in the Kiosk outside the Sanctuary for adult education and small group listings.
Couples
Want to work on your marriage? Perhaps a Home Builders small group is right for you! Many couples here at FPC have attended the annual Family Life Conference (offered in either Phoenix or Tucson) and have continued to meet together for studies that focus on marriage and family issues.
