2 Thank you for joining us for this year s Redeeming Singleness conference! We are excited to be together this weekend to discuss how we can live lives that are ignited for the gospel. We have purposefully shaped this weekend so that singles of all ages and stages are able to interact with each other, be equipped with relevant biblical teaching, and have a place to ask questions. Whether you are unmarried, previously married, separated, widowed, or are a single parent, we hope that you are encouraged and challenged as we explore God s redeeming purposes in our lives. We also hope that this weekend provide opportunities to connect with other College Parkers. Take time to ask about one another s stories and experiences. Our prayer is that friendships that begin here will continue beyond this weekend. May the Lord richly bless us as His family as we enjoy, experience, and explore together His glorious redemptive purposes in our own lives! Blessings, Bob Martin Front/Backcover Art: Pear in Still Life, Oil Painting, Katie Pourcho

14 NEXT STEPS 1. FIND A CHURCH For those who are not members of College Park Church, we would encourage you to consider membership. Membership will allow you to fully participate at all levels in the life of this body. To learn about upcoming Membership Classes visit yourchurch.com/membership 2. FIND RELATIONSHIPS IN WORSHIP Sunday morning is not just about you and God. Start using Sundays to actively pursue relationships with people: get to know the people that sit around you each week, have an extended conversation after service, and invite someone to lunch or to your home during the week. IN A GROUP There are a number of groups that we think provide a rich context for relationships: Small Groups: These groups meet regularly in people s homes to study God s Word. They are the best way to dive into community at College Park and create opportunities to enjoy relationships with a tight-knit group of other believers, regardless of their age or stage. For more information, visit yourchurch.com/smallgroups. Adult Big Groups: These groups meet on Sunday mornings in classroom-style settings at the North Indy campus. For more information, visit yourchurch.com/adultbiggroups. Bible Studies: Men s and women s Bible studies meet on various days of the week, and at different times, to study Scripture together and apply it to life. For more information on Men s Bible studies visit yourchurch.com/mensbiblestudies. For more information onwomen s Bible studies: visit yourchurch.com/womensbiblestudies.
15 Fishers Groups: College Park Fishers offers various groups such as small groups and equipping classes. For more information, visit yourchurch.com/fishers. IN DISCIPLESHIP Discipleship relationships are gatherings with 1-2 other people for the explicit purpose of growing in Christ. These relationships look different depending on the people involved; but they may include Bible study, prayer, accountability, Scripture memory, and sharing life. For more information, visit yourchurch.com/discipleship. 3. FIND A PLACE TO SERVE All believers are called to present their lives as a living sacrifice to God in this life (Rom 12:1). There are numerous opportunities inside and outside of the walls of our church to give your life away so that God can work in the lives of others. Here are a few to consider: Children s Ministries: Lead our next generation to know God and His saving love through Christ (yourchurch.com/children). Student Ministries: Get into the lives of students in middle school or high school and help them learn to fight the good fight of faith (yourchurch.com/students). Small Groups: Serve others in your own Small Group or lead a group (yourchuch.com/smallgroups). Guest Services: Be the first to welcome those who are coming to College Park for the first time. (Contact Jenny Brake at jbrake@yourchurch.com.) Local Outreach: Serve with one of our strategic partners to build bridges of grace that can bear the weight of truth (yourchurch.com/localoutreach). Others: Check out a myriad of ways to serve at College Park! (yourchurch.com/serving or contact Bob Martin at bmartin@yourchurch.com)
