2. Missions -

Ministry Leaders: Al Campbell & Allen Thomas

“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.  And surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20

We want to facilitate the opportunity for these commands to be carried out in the individual lives of our members, recognizing that it is a mandate that includes both foreign AND local missions.

Goals

  • Expand and strengthen the kingdom of God in targeted cross-cultural locations.
  • Encourage and equip current and future missionaries to preach the good news of the kingdom of God.
  • Empower Eastside members to participate in God’s mission of blessing all nations, whether in this country or abroad.

5. Life Groups -

Ministry Leaders: Erik Lewis & Mike Nicolls

Community God created us with the need to connect to other people and to be loved. This is why being involved in community is so important to our personal well-being and spiritual growth. It is also one of the main reasons we have Life Groups at Eastside.

Life Groups Life Groups are small spiritual communities made up of people who get involved in one another’s lives. Their involvement is primarily based on a weekly meeting at one of the group member’s homes, but also includes other social activities and sharing meals together. These groups are committed to caring for one another, learning how to love others as Jesus modeled in the New Testament, and drawing in people who are not part of a healthy spiritual community.

You Are Invited! Whether you are checking out Christianity for the first time or you have been a believer for years, our Life Groups are places of community where you will find acceptance and where your personal spiritual growth will be valued. Also, this is a great way to “connect” with other Christians in a closer way than in a big group! To find a group near you please contact the church office at 719-598-0344.

6. Ministry For Men and Women -

Ministry Leaders: Men - Pat Carlile & Women – Michelle Lewis

Men’s Ministry

Our vision is to become men who honor God as we lead our family, our community and our marketplace. Through Bible studies, accountability partnerships, and special events with our families, we challenge, equip and encourage men to lead lives of courage and conviction.

Women’s Ministry

What does it mean to live as a Godly woman in today’s world? How do we manage our lives, our families, and our jobs but still have time to grow in our walk with the Lord? Come and learn. Come and Grow. The women of Eastside desire to experience life to the fullest as believers in Jesus. Our goal is for every woman to be:

Embraced by God’s grace.

Established in God’s word.

Engaged in joyful service.
