At Jesse Lee Memorial, we believe that our journey as Christians is not over when we join a church.  Our lives as Christians are enhanced by prayer, study, service, and seeking God’s purpose in our lives.  We encourage the entire congregation to take advantage of these opportunities to go beyond weekly worship; to support and encourage each other and to grow together in our faith.

Please join us for these classes and small groups:

Sundays 10:00am–10:50am
We are offering three small-group classes on Sunday mornings between our two later services.   “Go Fish” is a course that makes evangelism easy for everyone.  The "Wired Word" discusses current events using the scriptures, and there will be a class on "Forgiveness".  Feel free to attend any of the three classes.  If you are interested in leading a small group, please contact Pastor Debbi.

Mondays
Moms in Touch Prayer Group – Ginny Konopka
8:00 - 9:00 am (Upper Room)
9:30 - 10:30 am (Oasis Room)
The best thing you can do for your child is pray.  God promises in Isaiah to “gently lead those who have young” (Isaiah 40:11).  Moms in Touch is an international group of parents and grandparents who meet daily to pray for their children, their schools, their teachers and their administrators.
