The Senior Adult Ministry at Council Road is called CAPSTONE and is for adults 55 and older. Not only are senior adults a link to the heritage of our church, but they share a common goal of casting vision for our future. Within the ministry, you'll find friendships, fellowship and many opportunities to serve.

CAPSTONE Ministry

Connection Classes

Connection Classes – twenty-two of them – meet each Sunday morning. They provide meaningful Bible study and fellowship with people who will love and care for you. Classes are offered for: men only, women only, and coed. Call the Capstone Ministry Office at 789-3175 for assistance in finding the right group for you.


Crafts Ministry

This group of ladies enjoys the fellowship of getting together and “crafting.” More than that, they use their time to craft gifts as a ministry – making items to share with those homebound, in nursing and retirement facilities, hospice patients and items for babies and children in foster care or special facilities.

Meets first, second, and third Thursday of each month at 9:00 AM in room 133.

Call the Capstone Ministry Office for additional information.


Fellowship / Socials

We have lots of them! Many activities are scheduled by Connection Classes.
