MINISTRIES

We do several things as a church which help us practice the way of Jesus and grow together on purpose. Some of these are listed below.

SUNDAY GATHERINGS

Every Sunday gathering consists of four pillars: worship, prayer, teaching and community.  Sunday gatherings are a space for you to experience our community in a larger setting and a great first step if you’re exploring faith or searching for a faith community. There are a variety of serving opportunities during Sunday gatherings. If you are interested in serving, you can sign up here.

KIDS

We value families. We don’t just think the kids are the church of tomorrow, but we think they are the church of today.  Kids join their parents/guardians for the beginning of the service and then are dismissed to be loved on by our amazing Kidznet leaders. During Kidznet, our kids learn about who God is, do fun activities, and of course, enjoy a snack. If you are interested in serving in this area, sign up here.

YOUTH

We love the next-generation. We don’t think students are the future of the church, we think they are the church right now. For the latest information about Spruce Youth, check out our Instagram page. Our youth ministry doesn’t work without the amazing adults that pour into students lives. Sign up here to serve at Spruce Youth.

LIFE GROUPS

We believe God created us to live in community with other people. If you don’t have a community, we want to help you find it. 
 
This is what God has called the church to be about: creating environments where authentic community can take place and building transformative communities where people can experience oneness with God and with one another.
 
Life Groups gather in various locations around the Avalon. You can register for a Life Group here.

ALPHA

Alpha is place to ask questions and explore faith in a fun, low-pressure enviroment. Each session includes a short film and a discussion where you can share what you think with a small group of people just like you.
 
Alpha is designed to be a space for people who wouldn’t typically go to church, it’s where you can say anything you want and there is no question that you cannot ask.
 
Our next Alpha will be taking place in early 2025.

SUPPER BOWL

Supperbowl is a weekly ministry in the heart of downtown St. John’s that serves a meal to over 100 people. We support this ministry on the first Saturday of every second month. If you would like to serve, cook a meal, or contribute financially, let us know!
