It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.  -Paul to the Ephesians

The Equipping Ministry is part of the Discipleship Purpose.  It exists to build up the body of Christ at Heritage “until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.” We recognize that this is a huge undertaking—one that will never be fully accomplished—and can only be pursued in the power and wisdom of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, we partner with God in his transformational work in the lives of the individuals, families, and of the whole congregation that worships here. This is how we do that:

e4

e4 is our primary equipping process for establishing the foundations of our faith at Heritage. It is a year long course. e4 is designed to give you a comprehensive understanding of the most important elements of Christian faith and practice.

alpha

Alpha is a ten-week course designed to introduce you to the basics of Christianity. If you have recently become a Christian, or if you have not yet decided to follow Jesus but you’re curious about who he is, Alpha is the best place for you to start. It is a no-pressure, safe environment to explore your questions about God, the Bible, Jesus, and the Church.

sunday am classes

baptism

Baptism is one of the most important, and exciting, steps we can take in our walk with Jesus. At Heritage, we do public baptisms once every quarter—so you’re never more than 3 months away from a baptism service! To be baptized at Heritage, we ask that you register for, and attend, the baptism class, which generally occurs one or two weeks before the baptism weekend. For more information on having your children baptized, please contact our Children’s Director, Matt Liston.
