FIVE FUNCTIONS OF THE CHURCH
Healthy things grow and produce fruit. Acts 2:42–47 describes an ‘ideal’ Christian community, a ‘body’ that is healthy and growing. From this passage we can identify five interdependent systems: Fellowship, Discipleship, Worship, Evangelization and Ministry. In a healthy parish, each of these systems functions well.
ONE BIG FAMILY
Friends in Faith at St. Philip the Apostle helps our large church feel smaller by connecting people in small groups. These groups of three or more meet to discuss faith and relevant topics in a relaxed setting, fostering a stronger sense of belonging and a deeper relationship with Christ. It's a space to care for others, impact the community, and live out our faith together. We provide the content—you just show up and belong!
PRAYER GROUPS
If you're visiting us for the first time, we warmly welcome you—ALL are invited! We know that visiting a new church can bring many thoughts, so we want you to feel completely at ease. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us or speak with an usher during your visit.
