This Week at Evergreen

We live in a world connected by screens, yet so many of us feel deeply alone. In this new series on community, we’ll explore why we long for belonging, what keeps us from committing, and how Jesus invites us into a family where we are fully known and loved. Join us as we rediscover the life we were made for—together.

Series Art Work

Artist Statement: In Matthew 22 of the Bible, Jesus teaches a parable pointing to the heavenly Wedding Feast. A Father is hosting a wedding banquet for his Son and invites influential and notable people of society. In addition, he sends his servants out to give invitations to people who are marginalized, those traveling on highways, both good and bad. The Good News is that God values and finds all people worthy of an invitation to salvation, through Jesus. How can our tables give a foretaste of heavenly community, demonstrating inclusion and grace to all peoples?

Come build community with our 3rd-5th Youth group students on Wednesday, October 1st for a Game Night with a twist!

Bring your favorite card or board game to share, if you would like! Youth group meets from 6:30-8:00 - you are welcome to stay for the entire meeting or attend just for the Game Time from 6:45-7:30.

3rd-5th Youth Assistance Needed

Can you lend a hand on a Wednesday after Community Night dinner? Our 3rd-5th Youth program needs volunteers to help connect with students and enjoy lessons, games, and activities together. This does not have to be an ongoing commitment, and you can choose the dates that work best for you! Men and women are welcome, and all programming is planned in advance, facilitated by Kids Ministry Director Chris Vredevoogd. Check out the link below to select dates.

Youth groups for 3rd-12th grade meet weekly September-April. Contact Chris (chris@egm.org) for questions about 3rd-5th grade and Jesse (jesse@egm.org) for questions regarding 6th-12th grade.
