Meadowbrook Care Department works to connect individuals to God's plan and design for their whole life. These opportunities include:
Baby Dedications
A baby dedication is an opportunity for the parents to make a commitment to raise the child according to biblical standards. The parents recognize that it is their responsibility to live as godly examples. For more information, contact Ronna Cleveland at the church office.
Baptisms
Baptism in water is by immersion, and is for believers only. It is a symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ's death, burial and resurrection. If you would like to be baptized, contact Barbara Robinson at the church office for more information.
Counseling
The Counseling Ministry is set up to minister to those in the body who are going through a crisis, desiring lifestyle changes, or freedom from addictions. We offer biblically-based support groups as well as counseling in the areas of pre-marital, adult, children, youth, and finances.
