U.Community on Facebook
Emmanuel’s U.Community is a thriving University Community nestled within a vibrant church! As a college student in our midst you get to enjoy the loving atmosphere of a church full of families with children, young couples, retirees, and plenty of other twenty-somethings who are ready to accept you as you are – and encourage you to grow from there.
We believe in the extravagant love, life saving power and grace of Jesus Christ and we want to share that love with one another and with the world outside the walls of our church.
Here’s how…
…On Sunday Mornings
Sunday morning worship services are the heart of the week. Our pastor is a deep-thinking man who doesn’t settle for pat answers and doesn’t expect others to approach a genuine faith in Jesus Christ without wrestling through the truths it entails. He is a solid Bible teacher with a gift for voicing honest questions in his sermons and explaining what the Bible has to say about issues that impact our lives here and now. You can show up at 10:30 to praise the Lord with a talented and sometimes hard-driving band composed of fellow students and other Emmanuel musicians.
…In U.Community Small Groups
On Sunday mornings between the worship services and on various evenings during the week, U.Community groups meet to dig more deeply into the truths of God’s word, encourage one another in life, eat together, and simply have fun. This is where real connections happen and growth becomes irresistibly contagious. If you’re serious about living beyond the common level of church life, then we urge you to plug in this way and see what God has for you.
…Through U.Community Passion
Compassion for the downtrodden is one of the pillars of Christ’s character that we want to imitate, so we will strive throughout the year to find and seize opportunities to take the love of Christ beyond the walls of our church. From single-day events to spring-break trips; we will do our best to walk the walk of unconditional love and compassion.
…Through Personal Connections and Mentorship
We have several loving and mature Christians ready to meet individually with students that would like to discuss personal issues or simply want a mentor. This sort of arrangement can be long-term or only a meeting or two, depending on what you feel you need.
…Through U.Community Special Events
We know you like to have fun, and we know you want answers to issues that matter to you. So, we’ll have some U.Community gatherings during the year that give you an opportunity to fellowship with other students, perhaps hear guest speakers, and maybe just get away from campus for a few hours.
Make my Joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Philippians 2:2
