One of my favorite parts about the Kingdom of God is that it is made up of so many communities of people. This summer, The Grove gets to return to San Quintin, Mexico to continue in kingdom partnership. During our time there, we will get a front row seat to the ministry that Iglesias Del Oeste does year round. Our team of eleven will be spending time with local churches, learning stories from pastors, evangelizing in the area, and serving different communities in need.

Rooted February classes - February 11, 18, 25
Rooted is made up of four classes designed to help you connect to Arcade Church, find out where you belong, and how to make an impact on others by serving and living out the Gospel.
Whether you are a new believer or a long-time believer, Rooted is for you.
CONNECT
You will find out what we believe as a church, our mission as a church and our vision for the next few years. We will discuss ways for you to grow in your journey with God and how to connect to the Arcade Church family.
BELONG
You will have the opportunity to find out what it means to belong to a body of believers, why it is important to gather big and small, and what it means to become a member of Arcade Church.
IMPACT
This class helps you experience the fulfillment of living out your God-given gifts and make an impact at not only Arcade Church, but your community and beyond.
GO
A class without a class. We believe serving the body of Christ is important for our mission at Arcade Church: to help as many people as possible hear, see, and follow Jesus. This is a way for you to try out one of our ministries and meet other Arcadians.
Rooted works best if you start with Connect, but you can jump into any week to get things going! All four classes must be completed for membership.
Join us at “E4: Practicing the Presence of Jesus” on February 9-10, 2024. This is a conference sponsored by Arcade Church and Venture Church Network Northern California and Nevada.
This weekend focuses on the Apostle Paul’s words in Ephesians 4 where he explains how the ascended Christ has given us what we need to practice unity, avoid drifting, and enjoy equipping people for the work of ministry. In other words, make disciple-makers.
Who is this conference for? Ministry teams, small groups, and individuals are encouraged to attend and discover how God has equipped them for the work of ministry.
We are going to postpone the Chili Cook off. We plan to try it again in the fall. I am sorry for this news but let's trust the Lord for His timing. Thank you all so much for your willingness to serve. I will circle back to you once we have a new date and you can decide then if you still want to participate.
FYI our BBQ challenge, which was a big hit last year, is scheduled for May 19th. We are making exciting changes to that event to make improvements from last year. I hope you all mark your calendars for that.
-Pastor Tom
Sometimes life with Christ can feel like a fog. We work hard to do what he says, but sometimes it feels like we're lost in a fog of despair and struggle. No matter how hard we try we just can't be godly. What is godliness anyway?
Join us this winter as we find out, what is godliness and how do we get it? Why do I even want it?
