Discipleship Training

SS class pix 7-9-06 068 Discipling the believer...
Once a student becomes a Christian, it is essential to get plugged in to a Bible study class in order to develop and mature in Christ.  It is also important for mature Christians to get involved and continue their growth.  The Student Ministry wants to provide each student with quality discipleship; we want students to be knowledgeable about what they believe and why they believe it.  Each student at Porter has the opportunity to get plugged into a discipleship training class and be put on a track to learn the most vital aspects of the Christian faith.  Classes are held each Sunday night at 5:30 pm.
